God in our distant places

Draw us closer

God in family, friends, strangers and outcasts

Draw us closer

God in comfort, challenge, certainty and surprise

Draw us closer

God in appetites and satisfaction, motivation and ambition

Draw us closer

God within us at our best

Draw us closer

God within us at our worst

Draw us closer

God of food and fellowship and fun

Draw us closer

Amen
