[Verse 1]
D A C G Here in this place new light is streaming, D C G Now is the darkness vanished away. D A C G See in this space our fears and our dreamings, D C Am D brought here to you in the light of this day.
[Chorus]
A C D A Gather us in, the lost and forsaken, C D A Gather us in, the blind and the lame, D A C G Call to us now and we shall awaken, D C Am D We shall arise at the sound of our name.
[Verse 2]
D A C G We are the young - our lives are a myst'ry, D C G We are the old, who yearn for your face, D A C G We have been sung throughout all of history, D C D Called to be light to the whole human race.
[Chorus]
A C D A Gather us in, the rich and the haughty, C D A Gather us in, the proud and the strong, D A C G Give us a heart, so meek and so lowly, D C Am D Give us the courage to enter the song.
[Verse 3]
D A C G Here we will take the wine and the water, D C G Here we will take the bread of new birth, D A C G Here you shall call your sons and your daughters, D C Am D Call us anew to be salt for the earth.
[Chorus]
A C D A Give us to drink the wine of compassion C D A Give us to eat, the bread that is You. D A C G Nourish us well and teach us to fashion, D C Am D Lives that are holy and hearts that are true.
[Verse 4]
D A C G Not in the dark of building confining, D C G Not in some heaven light years away, D A C G here in this place the new light is shining, D C Am D Now is the Kingdom, now is the day.
[Chorus]
A C D A Gather us in and hold us forever, C D A Gather us in and make us your own. D A C G Gather us in all peoples together, D C Am D Fire of love in our flesh and our bone.
