Lyrics:

  1. Lord, we long to be your workers to build up the peace you want. It's a deep peace, much desired, that's been absent for too long. By your strong creative hands, Lord, that can mould the human heart, make us labourers for your Kingdom who will gladly speak of you.

  2. Lord, your Word is light and guidance that will never fade or die. It will light the path before us, Lead us to your grace and will. Lord, equip me to be able, To announce your gift to all. That the world will, by my own words, Hear yet more about your peace.

  3. Gracious Giver, Abba Father, Keep us always in your sight, For we are your humble children who too quickly lose our way. For you are our precious Father, You’re our safety and our peace, And you long to keep from evil, Every cherished child of yours.

  4. Lord, your promise we remember, “I will be with you always.” And we ask you in each day to give us strength in heart and mind. By your strong creative hands, Lord, that can mould the human heart, Make us labourers for your Kingdom, Who will gladly speak of you.
