(in memoriam—Thomas A Kempis May 1, 1471)
The cruciform life to which we are called
In the crucible of life we give you our all
Shaped and sharpened
Enlightened and lead
In the footsteps of Him
Who rose from the dead.
By dying to sin and living anew
We boldly embody Immanuel who—
Through his grace has brought us,
With his word has taught us,
By his blood has bought us,
— Lord Jesus Christ.
