CHORUS:
Be rooted in him, be built in him,
grow strong in the faith as you were taught.
As you received Christ Jesus, so live in him,
abounding in thanksgiving. Live in him!
God brought us all
out of the darkness, and
into the king--dom of his son,
so, now, we know
that Christ in us is our hope--- of glory.
CHORUS
May we bear fruit
in active goodness and
grow in the knowledge of our God.
May he grant strength
to live with patience and joy--ful, thankful hearts.
