Lyrics:
Bless and keep us, God, in your love united,
from your family never separated.
You make all things new as we follow after;
whether tears or laughter, we belong to you.
Blessing shrivels up when your children hoard it;
help us, God, to share, for we can afford it.
Blessing only grows in the act of sharing,
in a life of caring, love that heals and glows.
Fill your world with peace, such as you intended.
Help us prize the earth, love, replenish, tend it.
Lord, uplift, fulfill all who sow in sadness:
Let them reap with gladness, by your harvest thrilled.
