We belong to one another. To each other we are bound
As we build a world together full of joy that we have found.
What we are we owe to others. When they need us, we respond.
We belong to one another and we hold a common bond.

We rely on one another at the dawning of our days
When we learn from those around us how to live in loving ways.
As we grow, we need each other and the gifts that we can share.
As our lives come to their ending, how we need each other’s care.

We give thanks for one another, for each heart and hand and face.
We are grateful for the blessings that infuse our lives with grace.
May we offer our abundance. As we’re given, may we give.
In our thanks for one another, may we help each other live.
