Christ the Saviour, cornerstone, chosen by God,
more precious than gold,
more solid than granite,
You are bread for the road,
shelter in the storm,
refreshment in the desert.
May your Spirit help us to keep your Word of life
burning in our hearts
so that we may live it every day,
so that we may grow in freedom
and in caring for the weakest,
so that your Kingdom of peace may come
where we can all sing
our eternal gratitude.
