O praise the gracious power

New Window External  Karaoke (Quicktime)

(one verse introduction)

O praise the gracious power
that tumbles walls of fear
And gathers in one house of faith
all strangers far and near:

We praise you, Christ!
Your cross has made us one!

O praise inclusive love,
encircling every race
Oblivious to gender, wealth
to social rank or place:

We praise you, Christ!
Your cross has made us one!
