God, your glory we have seen in your Son,
full of truth, full of heavenly grace;
in Christ make us live, his love shine on our face,
and the nations shall see in us the triumph you have won.
1 In the fields of this world his good news he has sown,
and send us out to reap till the harvest is done. [Refrain]
2 In his love like a fire that consumes he passed by,
the flame has touched our lips: let us shout, 'Here am I!' [Refrain]
3 He was broken for us, God-forsaken his cry,
and still the bread he breaks: to ourselves we must die. [Refrain]
4 He has trampled the grapes of new life on his cross;
now drink the cup and live: he has filled it for us. [Refrain]
5 He has founded a kingdom that none shall destroy;
the corner-stone is laid: go to work, build with joy!
