The heavens are yours, God;
and you have given us the earth;
but you did not leave us here alone.
You drove back the sea, turned it into
dry land, so slaves could walk to freedom.
You gave us Jesus, raised him from the dead;
giving us a new birth into a living hope.
As you dwelt in our Lord Jesus,
dwell in us, that we too may
do your works; O do not
leave us here alone.
