We antici.......pate


We anticipate
what is not yet
and practice now
your future
we say and sing
that all you have made
your creation
is good
laboriously
so very slowly
we work out your promise
in hope and fear
and strive to build
a city of peace
a new creation
where you will
be our light,
our all.

Give us strength, O God,
To persevere
And bring us to
A happy end
