Lord we are drawn to your church on a hill,

Inspired down the decades, it witnesses still.

Through worship and service, discussion and song,

We each in our own way to this place belong.

Gifts may be found in the groups we attend;

We listen and share, know the care of our friends,

Skills newly discovered, our talents made clear;

Your life force among us as we gather here.

Meaning and purpose are found in this place,

lncreasing awareness of creative grace.

With thankful commitment we offer our best

As we slowly see just how much we are blest.

Christ, you are Lord of this church on a hill.

Each day within our lives your promise fulfil;

When, meeting together, we sense love abounds

That there in our midst you most surely are found.
