Lyrics: Children of one loving Mother, we are each a sister, brother. In your image, God, you mold us; in one family, Love, you hold us. Though we strive with one another, hurt our sister or our brother, in our struggles and our wronging still is blessing and belonging. We are not alone, but rather, God, you grant us grace together. May we learn to love the Other as our sister-self or brother. As one family, God, you gather all your children here together. Help us shed all walls and labels: bring us home, Love, to your table. -

Welcome to those who are fragile, a safe healing place to belong, a shelter from harm, a comforting arm, a refuge where you may grow strong. Welcome the child within us, the small, timid voice in the night, her wonder and fear at the world so near, the child of your love and delight.
