Be now my living vision,
O Lord of all my heart;
Your presence lights my waking
And keeps me through the dark.
Be first in all my longing,
The truth by which I see;
In every thought and action,
Let Your life grow in me.

Be now my living wisdom,
Your Word my daily bread;
Speak truth into my thinking
And guide the path I tread.
You are my faithful Father;
You call me child and heir.
Your Spirit dwells within me;
You hear my wordless prayer.

Christ before us, Christ within us,
Be the life of all we do.
By Your Spirit, shape Your people;
Make us beautiful in You.
You are working for our good, Lord,
Through the joy and through the pain.
Form Your likeness in us, Jesus,
For the glory of Your name.

Before the world’s foundations,
You purposed in Your Son
A people for Your glory,
Made holy, joined as one.
Through all our loss and labour,
Your love is working still;
Conform us to our Saviour
And teach us all Your will.

Christ before us, Christ within us,
Be the life of all we do.
By Your Spirit, shape Your people;
Make us beautiful in You.
You are working for our good, Lord,
Through the joy and through the pain.
Form Your likeness in us, Jesus,
For the glory of Your name.

You knelt to wash Your people’s feet;
You bore our shame and sin.
Now teach our hands to serve with love,
And cleanse our hearts within.
Renew our minds to know Your will;
Give strength to walk Your way.
Let all the world behold Your grace
In how we live each day.

High King, our lasting treasure,
Our victory You have won;
You lead us through the struggle,
Until our race is run.
Heart of our hearts, our Saviour,
Whatever may befall,
Be now our living vision,
Our Lord and King of all.

Christ before us, Christ within us,
Be the life of all we do.
By Your Spirit, shape Your people;
Make us beautiful in You.
You are working for our good, Lord,
Through the joy and through the pain.
Form Your likeness in us, Jesus,
For the glory of Your name.
