Christ Church, Dublin. Hymn
Text: John A. Dalles
Tune: CHRIST CHURCH
Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8.
To live a life of joy!
Lord, show us what to do
Our powers to employ,
In love that comes from You.
From morning light to evening star,
May we reveal Your love afar!
To live courageously!
Lord, make us more alive!
Your distant goal we see:
So toward it may we strive!
To lift the fallen, find the lost,
To risk our best, nor count the cost!
To live as ones reborn,
Anew and from above,
With light our lives adorn
With lustrous chords of love!
Lord, by your glory may we shine;
Let us proclaim Your way, divine!
