Even As The Father

Music by Désirée Goyette
Lyrics: Désirée Goyette

Not of the earth, not of the dust,
God’s child innocent and pure
We are not fallen, we cannot fail
For our heritage is holy secure

Shining reflections, children of light
Singing through the darkest night
Strengthened by Spirit, conquering ev’ry lie
With the “loveliness of Love” which never dies

“Be ye therefore perfect even as the Father”
Ev’ry step a moment of glorious birth
For we are upright, we are not fallen,
Not of the earth

And so the Shepherd has washed us clean
Robed in radiance, crowned in light
Claim all Love’s blessings, make them your own
For each blessing is your noble right

“Be ye therefore perfect even as the Father”
Ev’ry step a moment of dignity
For we are upright, we are upright
Arise, God’s child is free!
