A covenant community

Together

Being together

Can be easy.

Being together

Can be hard.

Being together

Can bring happiness.

Being together

Can bring tears.

Jesus,

You have brought us together

As family.

Jesus,

You have promised

To be together with us

When life seems easy

And when life seems hard.

When we are happy

And when tears are in our eyes.

Thank you, Jesus

Help me

Help me to learn

From the good examples

Of those around me

And to be a good example myself.

Help me to hear

The good words

Of those that love me

And to encourage others with what I say.

Help me to see Jesus

In the way others live

And to show him myself

In the way that I live.

Family

Young and old

And those in between;

We’re all part of your family.

Help us to live together,

Learn together,

Grow together,

And love together.

Thank You

Thank you, Jesus

For those that teach me.

Thank you, Jesus

For those that lead me.

Thank you, Jesus

For those that feed me.

Thank you, Jesus

For those that help me.

Thank you, Jesus

For those that comfort me.

Thank You, Jesus

For those that love me.

Thank you, Jesus

For those around me.

Hug

Sometimes,

When I’m feeling sad

I need a hug.

Sometimes,

When I feel alone

I need a hug.

Sometimes,

When I need a hug

There’s no-one around.

Thank you, Jesus

That wherever I am

And however I feel

I can always feel your arms around me.
