May our standing ask permission To be a kind of benediction To a love we know is bigger than ourselves The spirit and your witness Is bearing light upon our weakness Giving weight to what we cannot see alone We come with what we are We come with what we? ve done We come with what we are We are a beginning In faith we look to Comfort She is laying her old hands upon our souls as we discover We are waking more to hope Your committed celebration Is part of our salvation Holding on to what we know we cannot hold alone Because we are not that strong Sometimes afraid of what we? ve done We are not that strong But we are a beginning We are a beginning Pray for the bravery To act upon the kindness of forgiveness And the mystery of clarity sometimes Mercy is grateful to go under all our failures Thanks be to Christ for severity That's kissed us on our cheeks May our standing ask permission To be a kind of benediction To a love we know is bigger than ourselves Because we are not that strong Most times afraid of what we? ve done Oh we are not that strong But we are a beginning We are a beginning We are a beginning We are a beginning
