Renunciation
Let go, obtain God's mercy
to follow Jesus

Renunciation
Let go, obtain God's mercy
to follow Jesus
transform, transfigure
Jesus draws us to Himself
Behold our real self
Yes, keep on calling
Jesus never sends away
let faith edify

O hear and listen
It's that which comes from the heart
that defiles us
Walking on water
Jesus declares, It is I
what is my water?
Christ did not spare John
Not from suffering and death
Redemptive suff'ring
Pruning is helpful
May seem hurtful, but behold
Cut back, more fruitlful!
May 5
Opening the doors
God welcomes us, everyone
Shut out not others!
