Gathering | Tend the Ground
We till the earth
we tend the ground
sowing hope and peace where none is found
In selfless love
God’s life abounds
We till the earth
we tend the ground
As God provides our every need
with grateful hearts let us receive
these gifts of love, and make return
to bless the world, to bless the world
We till the earth
we tend the ground
sowing hope and peace where none is found
In selfless love
God’s life abounds
We till the earth
we tend the ground

where there is pain
I can heal
Where there are wounds
I can bind
and hunger
I can fill

where there are yokes
I can release
Where there are captives
I can free
and anger

When comes the day I dread
to see a broken world
compel me from my cell grown cold
that Your people I may behold

and hunger
I can fill

And when I’ve done
all that I could
yet there are hearts
I cannot move

Closing | We Are Your Love
[Skip to 0:58 for Verse]
Where You lead us
we will follow
and where You send us we shall go
With hearts wide open
we bring Your loving presence
Your light shall lead us as we go
Each step we take brings Your mercy
Each move we make brings Your love
We are Your hands, Your hands
reaching out with mercy
We are Your voice, Your voice
speaking words of freedom
Light in the dark for all to see
life-giving water for the thirsty
we are Your body
we are Your love
we are Your presence
We are Your body
we are Your love
we are Your presence
