(Refrain) What is the call?

deny the words I've longed to hear?
Forsake the one who draws me near,
so near...and still I ask:

You reach to take my hand,
will I choose to welcome your embrace?

I taste the

crying out for justice,
giving all you have:

closer to our breathing,
everlasting home:

Text by F.P. Green
1. He healed the darkness of my mind,
the day he gave my sight to me..
This
It was not sin that made me blind;
it was no sinner made me see.
2. Let others call my faith a lie,
or try to stir up doubt in me.
This Jesus does what none can do;
I once was blind but now I see!
3. Ask me not how!
But I know who has opened up new worlds to me:
This Jesus does what none can do;
I once was blind but now I see.

Sumus ecclesia!

our light, our hope and our salvation.
Rooted in faith, united in God's love,
our common future we embrace!
Refrain
2. We dare to hope, we dare to dream,
shaping a world where all are welcome!
We are compassion and forgiving love,
Your joyful instruments of peace!
