Go Forth

In the darkness, oh child, you stand among us awaiting the light
The light summons you with great strength and calling
Beckoning to the heart that newly beats with all its young might

Love ushers you on its wings of glory, calling you by sheer delight
Light floods your eyes and your first breath aches within
God has called you by your true name, the name that is your birth right

Your cry is a war cry that ushers in the rich warm breath of life
Your first smile is for God that held you in His arms the eternity before your birth
God has named you and to you alone He whispers go forth not into strife

Go forth and move the mountains with faith abound
Go forth young man and forge a path of righteousness
Go forth and pour out to the heavens until the angels hear your sound
