Church of God, elect and glorious

Church of God, elect and glorious,
holy nation, holy race;
called as God’s own special people,
royal priests and heirs of grace:
know the purpose of your calling,
show to all his mighty deeds;
tell of love which knows no limits,
grace which meets all human needs,

God has called you out of darkness
into his most marvellous light;
brought his truth to life within you,
turned your blindness into sight.
Let your light so shine around you
that God’s Name is glorified;
and all find fresh hope and purpose
in Christ Jesus crucified.

(Music: Ode to Joy)
