The Radiance of God’s Glory

Jesus,

You are the Son who radiates
God's glory evermore—
emitting rays of faith and hope
that opens many doors.

You are the Living Word of God
exemplifying grace,
with honor, beauty, mercy, love,
for all the human race.

Exact in likeness of the Lord,
You feed our hungry souls,
and all who thirst and search for You,
You heal and make them whole.

Christ Jesus, You sustain all things—
You are the Living Word.
It's through You that we have been saved—
our faith renewed and stirred.

And, now we gather to give thanks
to You, Lord Jesus Christ.
It's through You we have been redeemed
by all You sacrificed.
