God whose glory fill ours world - Litany

 

 

By Christine Sine

 

God whose glory fills our world,

God whose life is closer than breath,

God whose love is stronger than death,

God, this God of life and love,

Has sent an advocate to save us:

Jesus Christ the righteous, now at the right hand of God.

Not to condemn but to bring full life,

Not to accuse but to redeem,

Not to reject but to draw close,

God, this God of life and love,

Has sent an advocate to save us:

Jesus Christ the righteous, now at the right hand of God.

God who hears the cry of our seeking souls,

God who sees the pain of our suffering bodies,

God who feels the loss of our grieving spirits,

God, this God of life and love,

Has sent an advocate to be with us forever:

The Spirit of truth abides with us eternally.

Before us to teach and lead,

Within us to comfort and heal,

Around us to shield and protect,

God, this God of life and love,

Has sent an advocate to be with us forever:

The Spirit of truth abides with us eternally.
