1. How can we name a Love
that wakens heart and mind,
indwelling all we know
or think or do or seek or find?
Within our daily world,
in every human face,
Love's echoes sound and God is found,
hid in the commonplace.

2. If we awoke to life
upheld by loving care
that asked no great reward
but firm, assured, was simply there,
we can, with parents' names,
describe, and thus adore,
Love unconfined, our Father kind,
our Mother strong and sure.

3. When people share a task,
and strength and skills unite
in projects old or new,
to make or do with shared delight,
our Friend and Partner's will
is better understood,
that all should share, create, and care,
and know that life is good.

4. So in a hundred names,
each day we all can meet
a presence, sensed and shown
at work, at home, or in the street.
Yet names and titles all
shine in a brighter sun:
in Christ alone is full Love grown
and life and hope begun.
