Along this Lenten Journey

Merle’s Tune 7.6.7.6.D

Along this Lenten journey, Lord, give us eyes to see
The vision you’re creating for this community.
Through your illumination new life you will impart
When we embrace your mission and seek a transformed heart.

In praying for discernment, Lord, share with us your word
That shapes the world around us, when’re your voice is heard.
The echoes of your whispers inspire humanity,
And strengthen us in shaping a new reality.

Through wilderness distractions that summon us to yield,
Lord, teach us to embody the truth that you revealed.
With faithfulness and courage and love that you instilled
As present-day disciples, God’s kingdom we will build.
