ALL ARE WELCOME

Let us build a house where love can dwell and all can safely live.

A place where saints and children tell how hearts learn to forgive.

Built of hopes and dreams and visions, rock of faith and value of grace.

Here the love of Christ shall end divisions:

All are welcome, all are welcome, all are welcome in this place.

By Marty Haugen, Gia Publications
