O Christ, whom we may love and know
O Christ, whom we may love and know
and follow to the end,
we who are friends together come
to thee our heavenly Friend.
Thou who didst share our daily toil
to make us good and free,
help us to share thy fiery love
and shining purity.
Give us thy love, that loves us all
and dared the glorious cross
that we may love to share and know
each other's joy and loss.
Give us the purity to shield
our souls in each dark place,
to give us wings to raise to thee,
and power to see thy face.
