Here’s a new song I wrote for today’s Lichfield Diocese Green Team study day:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lead us, O Lord, from death to life,
Teach us to steward the world you have made.
Give us the will to speak and act
only and always in Jesus’ name.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the valley of bones,
Father almighty, hear our prayer.
<\/strong><\/em>Give us the words to speak;
Reconcile us to you through Christ.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

All creation is scarred.
Father almighty, hear our prayer.
<\/em><\/strong>Gather all things to you;
Reconcile us to you through Christ.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’re the Body of Christ.
Father almighty, hear our prayer.<\/em>
<\/strong>Speak to our open hearts;
Reconcile us to you through Christ.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the shadow of death,
Father almighty, hear our prayer.
<\/em><\/strong>Bring us to life again!
Reconcile us to you through Christ.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
