O God of love, the Highest, Holy One,
Beyond our skill to worship, know, and love
Without the gifts of word and Word - Your Son
Incarnate God, anointed by the Dove -
Please take these words, our offering of praise
As if we knew You as You are, have been.
As out of mire You lift us, our words raise
To join in praise with all the hosts unseen.
Please grant us fuller knowledge, joy, and love,
Humility to know we know You not
As You reign in glory and love above -
Lest Your great condescension be forgot.
Lord, as we ever closer draw to You,
Our words and love - our nature - please renew.
