about
Beautiful Presbyterian Hymn written by Anna Briggs
lyrics
1. We lay our broken world
in sorrow at your feet,
haunted by hunger, war and fear,
oppressed by power and hate.
2. Here human life seems less
than profit, might and pride,
though to unite us all in you,
you lived and loved and died.
3. We bring our broken towns,
our neighbours hurt and bruised;
you show us how old pain and wounds
for new life can be used.
4. We bring our broken loves,
friends parted, families torn;
then in your life and death we see
that love must be reborn.
in sorrow at your feet,
haunted by hunger, war and fear,
oppressed by power and hate.
2. Here human life seems less
than profit, might and pride,
though to unite us all in you,
you lived and loved and died.
3. We bring our broken towns,
our neighbours hurt and bruised;
you show us how old pain and wounds
for new life can be used.
4. We bring our broken loves,
friends parted, families torn;
then in your life and death we see
that love must be reborn.
