Mothering God

(sung to a variation of 'Just as I am')

Mothering God, you gave us birth,

Carried and cradled, taught our worth;

Companion to each joy, each hurt.

Tender your love for me,

Oh tender your love for me.

Mothering Christ, what grace we read,

Giving your body for our need;

Wine to refresh and bread to feed.

Tender your love for me,

Oh tender your love for me.

Mothering Spirit, gentle, strong,

Teaching us where our hearts belong;

Guide of our lives, breath of our song.

Tender your love for me,

Oh tender your love for me.

Mothering God, about your feet

Sisters and brothers here we meet;

Only together each complete.

Tender your love for me,

Oh tender your love for me.
