1.	God of love and God of power, 
	grant us in this burning hour 
	grace to ask these gifts of thee, 
	daring hearts and spirits free. 
Refrain:
	God of love and God of power, 
	thou hast called us for this hour. 

2.	We are not the first to be
	banished by our fears from thee; 
	give us courage, let us hear 
	heaven's trumpets ringing clear. 
	(Refrain) 

3.	All our lives belong to thee, 
	thou our final loyalty; 
	slaves are we whene'er we share 
	that devotion anywhere. 
	(Refrain) 

4.	God of love and God of power, 
	make us worthy of this hour;
	offering lives if it's thy will, 
	keeping free our spirits still. 
	(Refrain)
