O Lord the Giver of all Life


O Lord the Giver of all life

O Lord, the Giver of all life
 Whose ways are ever just,
 Your people lift their hearts to you
In praise and prayer and trust.
 Protect the lives of those unborn;
 Let laws reflect your will;
 Give us your strength to work for life,
 That man may cease to kill.
 Help us to know your will for us;
 Give courage for the fight.
 Dismiss our doubts; renew our hearts
To struggle for the right.
 O Mother of the Crucified,
 Who bore the Lord of life,
 For every mother intercede;
 Be with us in our strife.
Lord Christ, to whom each soul is dear,
 For whom each child has worth,
 Receive your children who have died
Before their time of birth.
 Blest Trinity, O living God,
 To you our prayers ascend,
 Bring all at last to dwell with you,
Where life shall never end.
