May we praise you (John Foley)

1. May we praise You, O Lord,
with heart and hand and voice.
And since life itself is your gift to us,
then may all that we are be Yours.

2. May our living be true.
May all return to You.
And when life is done, let our passing be
like a birth into light of day.

3. Let Your step guide our path.
Let shades of dark not last.
May the sun of justice return on high,
and Your love be our road and guide.

4. To the Father be praise;
to Son and Spirit praise.
Unto God the one, let all praise be done,
Til the dawn of the lasting day.
