A church in Normandy which was bombed in WW2 and which now has the walls made out of glass
by Carol Dixon.
Give us the vision
for the coming years,
as we look to the future –
to overcome our fears,
and boldly take a stand
as we seek to make each land,
a kingdom fit for you.
Give us the vision
for the church, your bride,
to be pure, strong and holy –
to overcome our pride,
and humbly understand
we receive with open hand,
the pow-er from you.
Give us the vision
for our exploited earth
as we watch our planet suffering,
and see the peoples’ hurt;
spur us on at your command
until each and every land
gives glory to you. ©Carol Dixon 1988
