The world was created by the Word of God, re-created by his redemption, and it is continually renewed by his love. Rejoicing in him we call out:
Renew the wonders of your love, Lord.
We give thanks to God whose power is revealed in nature,
— and whose providence is revealed in history.
Renew the wonders of your love, Lord.
Through your Son, the herald of reconciliation, the victor of the cross,
— free us from empty fear and hopelessness.
Renew the wonders of your love, Lord.
May all those who love and pursue justice,
— work together without deceit to build a world of true peace.
Renew the wonders of your love, Lord.
Be with the oppressed, free the captives, console the sorrowing, feed the hungry, strengthen the weak,
— in all people reveal the victory of your cross.
Renew the wonders of your love, Lord.
After your Son’s death and burial you raised him up again in glory,
— grant that the faithful departed may live with him.
Renew the wonders of your love, Lord.
