Words (by Bernard Braley)

Be at every family table,
Share the pain in every ward,
Join the factory's busy payroll,
Caring, constant, loving Lord,
Caring, constant, loving Lord.

Be at every union meeting,
Fill a chair at every board,
Join each busy shopping precinct,
Caring, constant, loving Lord,
Caring, constant, loving Lord.

Be with every nation's leaders,
Give them grace to seek accord,
Help them fight with human suffering,
Caring, constant, loving Lord,
Caring, constant, loving Lord.

Be at every Christian gathering,
Guide our hearts to do your will,
Give us power to show our sonship,
Caring, constant, loving still,
Caring, constant, loving still.

Be with every individual,
Christian, doubter, coloured, white,
With each fear and joy and sorrow,
Caring, constant, Lord of light,
Caring, constant, Lord of light.
