May your life reflect the love of God who watches over you,
Who has not forsaken you for faithless things you say and do.
—–
Then when sin brings consequences you did not anticipate
God in mercy triumphs over weapons, forces, human hate.
—–
Once rejected, now accepted, countless people are the Lord’s.
No more in the wilds, rejected: “Children of the Living God.”
