We offer ourselves to God


We give ourselves to Christ
we offer ourselves to God
we heed the Spirit’s calling
God’s hand upon our lives

So is our promise
our hope for the new year
happy in the turning
for a new beginning

Ever drawing closer
to our Savior, our God
seeking to share your blessing
your light to the world
