God of wombing, God of birth, God who formed us from the earth, wake your likeness in us still, quicken us to do your will. God who gives us food and drink, hearts to love, and minds to think, day by day keep us aware all you give is ours to share. God of mercy, God of grace, swift to pardon and embrace, from hate's lockstep set us free to repent, forgive, agree. God revealed as Life and Light, dawn of hope past death's dread night, through us prove your promise true: you are making all things new.
