Tether Us to Truth – v3

Bind to us on our leaving
oh Lord we beg you
our being sent into the world;
the remnant of Your blessing
the rock of Your Word

Tether us to truth
Your mark upon our days
lash our lives to You;
send us as we are able
to boldly do Your work

Never wavering in our discipline
standing in the storms
conforming our walk to You;
going to the ends of the earth
as we are called to do

Being the hands and feet
gloves to Your hands
the messengers of God;
sharing God’s love to all we meet
going where we are sent

Call to Worship
God calls us together as his children
to reassure us of his love, to encourage
our care for each other, to remind us
of our responsibilities, and to send us out
as people who bear his name, 
Come, let us worship him!
