1 Help us trace your rainbow colors through these days of change and choice, holding firmly to your promise: all the world can praise, rejoice. 2 In a world of contradictions let your justice change our ways, then with mercy fire compassion, let no bias mar our praise. 3 Let us nurture fresh expressions, different ways of being church, sharing love and understanding, joining people in their search. 4 Let us go with common purpose, though distinctive from our birth; welcome all to share our vision, go as one to all the earth. 5 Through diversity and difference, rainbow colors of our race, let us share without distinction, God's demanding, loving grace.
