Gather Us In

D            A     C            
Here in this place new light is 
G          Gm/Bb      Dm       
streaming, Now is the darkness 
C         G
vanished away,
D           A         C         
See in this space our fears and 
    G          Gm/Bb           Dm
our dreamings, Brought here to 
         C        Am7  D   C/D  
you in the light of this day.
Gm6/D  D

A         C/D     D/F#     G  
Gather us in, the lost and 
A      A         C/G     D/F#  
forsaken, Gather us in, the 
     G   A
blind and the lame;
D          A        C         G
Call to us now, and we shall 
      Gm/Bb     Dm          C    
awaken, We shall arise at the 
    Am7 D   C/D Gm6/D  D
sound of our name.


[Verse 2]
D            A        C          
We are the young, our lives are a
  G       Gm/Bb      Dm       C 
 myst'ry, we are the old, who 
             G
yearn for your face,
D            A           C      
We have been sung throughout all
     G       Gm/Bb        Dm     
 of hist'ry, Called to be light 
      C        Am7 D   C/D  Gm6/D  D
to the whole hu-man race.

Gather us in, the rich and the 
A        A         C/G     D/F#
haughty, Gather us in, the 
      G   A
proud and the strong;
D         A         C           
Give us a heart, so meek and so

enter the song.


[Verse 3]
D            A        C          
Here we will take the wine and 
  G      Gm/Bb        Dm       C
the water, Here we will take the
            G
 bread of new birth,
D              A         C      
Here you shall call your sons 
       G          Gm/Bb    Dm    
and Your daughters, Call us anew 
     C       Am7 D   C/D  Gm6/D  D
to be salt for the earth.

Give us to drink the wine of

compassion, Give us to eat the 
  D/F#       G   A
bread that is you;
D          A         C           
Nourish us well, and teach us to 
G       Gm/Bb          Dm       
fashion Lives that are holy and 
C           Am7 D   C/D Gm6/D  D
hearts that are true.


[Verse 4]
D          A       C     
Not in the dark of buildings 
       G       Gm/Bb       Dm     
confining, Not in some heaven 
C           G
light years away, But
D            A         C        
here in this place the new light
    G        Gm/Bb      Dm       
 is shining, now is the Kingdom, 
C      Am7 D   C/D  Gm6/D  D
now is the day.

Gather us in and hold us 
   A         C/G    D/F#    G    
forever, Gather us in and make us 
A
Your own;
D         A      C         G    
Gather us in all peoples 
   Gm/Bb   Dm          C         
together, Fire of love in our 
Am7 D   C/D Gm6/D  D
flesh and our bone.
