Spoken Word

You said your mercies are new
With the dawn of a new day
Your mercies are renewed
And your faithfulness made greater

With the long night over
You have made your promises sure
Like the breaking of a new day
Your word has been sent out

That you shall make our ways prosperous
That our strength shall be renewed
That your light shall lead our path
That your favour shall go before us

You have never failed in your promises
You stand faithful and true
Your love holds no limits
They are shared abroad in our hearts

Because you are truly awesome
We cannot do anything without you
We therefore pray
That your hand shall
Manifestly rest upon us
