O
Christ,
give us a glimpse.

Let
us see you
shining like the sun,

Or like tonight's sliver of a moon;
or like wandering geese,
or the morning sky,
or the spider’s
web.

In workers, coffee growers,
crossing guards, and
in all homeless
people.

Let no person or place
ever be hidden from
the glow of your
earthly, Godly
presence.

Let us find your glory
in all things.

It
started
when Abraham
left his father’s house,
discarding all that he owned,
and made God's journey on unknown paths.

He let God turn it into a blessing,
which became grace
for all nations
and for
us.

Lord,
fill us too
with blessing
wherever we go—
in all we do, in each
and every person we meet.

O Lord,
is it what we do,
 or how we pray that saves us?

Yes, if you pour grace into us
from the bosom of
your love

then
we can bear
the Gospel hardships
you use to bring life to the world.
