Morning Song

To the tune of "For the Beauty of the Earth" ("Dix")

Verse 1:

Step by step and mile by mile

Bring each woman, man and child

To Your called community,

Singing, faithful, bold, and free

Refrain:

Love divine who for us longs

Make us one in morning song

Verse 2:

May Your ears be ever pleased

With Your people's harmony

Notes and skin in varied tones

One communion, Yours alone

Refrain

Verse 3:

In Your beauty every day

Open up the homeward way

Towards Your body, bread and wine,

Branches growing in one vine

Refrain

Verse 4:

Rising light and mercy's seed

From the Father for our need

Till the work of love is done

In Your Spirit make us one

Refrain
