mortal, we pass through beauty that decays,
yet sing to God our hope, our love, our praise,

caught from the Christ flame bursting through the night,
who touched the truth, who burned for what is right,

3 And for our own, our living and our dead,
thanks for the love by which our life is fed,
a love not changed by time or death or dread,

lying in darkness does its life retain,
in resurrection to grow green again.

A new dimension in the world of sound,
As worship moved us to a more profound

In faith and love, through centuries of wrong,
Borne witness to the truth in ev'ry tongue,

When utmost evil strove against the Light?
Then let us sing, for whom he won the fight,

Let all rejoice who have a voice to raise!
And may God give us faith to sing always
