Fire like water
poured out, upon us
a garment draped upon us
Drenched in shimmering
fabric
washed by the fire
beyond human cleaning
Wearing a cloak of fire
as water on our bodies
shimmering, burning brightly
Made pure, light
living God, risen Christ
Drape us in love
kindled by Your Spirit
Embolden us in Your power
wearing Christ, the Shepherd
on the outside, upon us
Your Spirit within us
guiding us in love

Robed for Heaven
Robed for heaven
bodies of light
transformed from the earth
to our heavenly delight
Rising like the Christ
at the end of our days
returning to heaven
to our celestial home

Clothe Us in Love
We, disciples of the Lord
saved by his choice
redeemed by his sacrifice
Clothe us in love
the mantle, the yoke
God, love
draped upon our lives
Able to forgive our
neighbors
because we are loved
strengthened, free,
following the Christ
the example of our brother
guided by the spirit
walking in the way of love
