Based on the Bishop's motto for the Diocese of Algoma for 2003, "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly" (Col.3:16) and other portions of Colossians 3.
Let the word of Christ dwell in youu richly, richly,
Let the word of Christ dwell richly in you.
You are risen with Christ;
set your minds on heavenly things.
You have put on the new self,
renewed in the knowledge of God. (refrain)
You are chosen of God;
you are holy and- well loved.
Choose to put on compassion,
humility, kindness and love. (refrain)
Speak together with psalms,
and- hymns and spiritual songs.
Sing to your heav'nly Father
with thank-fulness in your hearts.
(refrain twice, second time slower, using "us")
