Let our uniform be holiness and mercy
Justice, clothed with grace and truth

Save us when we look past
Jesus as an outcast
Shining, let us hold fast to You
Shining, let us hold fast to You
VERSE 3:
Breathe onto these dry bones, search the Spirit's deep groans
Speak into these calloused minds
Faith to make our dreams new, hope as we await You
Love to serve with joy and might
Onward to the conquest
North to South and East to West
Forward to the glorious fight of love
Forward to the glorious fight of love
