Let’s lift our hearts and voices in praise of our God.
The family of Christ united as one.

The church assembled to proclaim the work of Christ begun.

You are people of God,
You are a Holy Nation,
a Royal Priesthood,
a Chosen Race.

He calls us to be holy, a witness to his way.

We are the Church: a ministry of love,
The Father’s chosen image of Jesus, the Son.
New people, new life, rejoice in your God.
Celebrate your priesthood through the risen One.
