Extract:
The words we sing are wrung from broken hearts,
are formed within the soil of time and place,
are rooted in our history and this time,
yet ring with changeless mystery and grace.
Our treasure is the very grace of God,
the pearl that we would lose our lives to hold,
this gift we guard with frail yet gentle hands,
to share among God's people young or old.
We sing with others met along the way ...
Andrew Pratt (born 1948)
