O God, you watch over
your word to perform it,
but you call us to perform
our role, too.
As we have benefited
from the labors of others,
we must enter into labor
for those to come.
And in our faith we must
strengthen one another,
providing mutual
encouragement, as together
we celebrate the fame of
your abundant goodness
and sing aloud of your
righteousness.
