God, out of love for us

made a creation,
Set it all up such that life
came to be;
Ordered the nature of mass
and the forces
In just the way that God’s beauty
we see.


God, out of love for us,
gave us our freedom;
Freedom to think and to speak
and to do.
Give thanks to God for all this
is our nature;
How can we learn to God’s
standard be true?

God, out of love for us,
gave to us Jesus.
His is the life that God’s
standard displays.
The fruits of the Spirit
are ours to employ,
Loving each other for all of our days.

Give to God glory,
the Father who made us;
Give to God glory, in Jesus the Son;
Give to God glory,
the life giving Spirit;
Give to God glory,
the great Three in One.
