COTE IEV: 19-14-EN-PARTIEV
Words and music : Emmanuel Community (A. Lavardez)
Lord, you send us out into the world,
Bringing the Good News to all.
Witnessing to God, Emmanuel,
With his Spirit in our hearts.
For our God has come to visit us,
Jesus Christ, the risen Lord.
Mary’s son and born of Israel,
Son of God, who gave his life.
Cry out with joy, Christ has defeated death.
He sends us all to witness to the word of life.
Cry out with joy, singing of his love.
He is alive, with us forevermore.
When you gave your life to save us all,
Jesus Christ, you set us free.
For our sins have all been washed away,
And now death has lost it’s sting.
Heaven has been opened for us all ;
The gift of eternal life.
Living in the glory of the Lord,
In his peace and endless joy.
Christ alone is saviour of the world,
By the gift of grace we live.
We are bearers of God’s gift to us,
Charged to bring it to all men.
May we ever praise your holy name,
All that you have done for us.
Glory be to God through all the earth,
For his love is without end.
