Go forth with renewed hope,
Trusting in the transforming love of God.
Trusting in the transforming love of God.
God does not leave things as they are;
With God, all things are made new.
With God, all things are made new.
All creation responds to God’s presence;
The world is alive with possibility.
The world is alive with possibility.
We open ourselves to this truth;
With Christ, we trust our whole lives to this power.
With Christ, we trust our whole lives to this power.
Nothing is beyond the reach of God;
Neither evil, nor hardship, nor death.
Neither evil, nor hardship, nor death.
Christ is risen!
He is risen indeed.
He is risen indeed.
