Brothers and Sisters of Mine
We must be merciful and kind
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Luke 6:36-42 Lyrics: 1 We must be merciful and kind,
If we possess the Saviours mind;
In enmity we dare not live,
But freely pardon and forgive.
2 The soul with spite and wrath oppress'd
Can ne'er attain to peace and rest!
But slavish fear, and guilt and pain,
Must ever on that heart remain.
3 Dare we a right to heaven claim,
Though we profess the Christian name;
Whilst we still lack the nobler part,
The love of God to rule the heart.
4 To love our friends, and them alone,
That would be net to loving none;
To love a friend, but not a foe,
Such love hath ev'ry Heathen too.
5 But O, it is a diff'rent case
With those, who are the sons of grace!
Not eye for eye, nor tooth for tooth,
Say they, who love the word of truth.
6 What ill in other men I see,
The very same I find in me;
For when I search myself within,
I find the best I do is sin.

From Miles Around
Author: Jane Marshall, 1924- Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Luke 6:17-19 First Line: From miles around the sick ones came Lyrics: 1 From miles around the sick ones came,
in hope that one they heard was Lord
would make their souls and bodies well
with healing touch or saving word.
2 And still they come, new preys of plague,
while often in their rooms of prayer
God's people worship, safe and sound,
unheeding, even unaware.
3 Recall us to our mission, Lord,
to reach for those cut off, in pain;
to offer friendship, strength, and peace
and be a faithful Church again. Used With Tune: BOZELL

O sacred head sore wounded

with grief and shame weighed down;
O kingly head surrounded
with thorns your only crown;
death's shadows rise before you,
the glow of life decays;
yet hosts of heaven adore you
and tremble as they gaze.
2 What language shall I borrow
to praise you, heavenly friend,
for this your dying sorrow,
your mercy without end?
Such agony and dying!
Such love to sinners free!
O Christ, all grace supplying,
turn now your face on me.
3 In this your bitter Passion,
good Shepherd, think of me,
look on me with compassion,
unworthy though I be:
beneath your cross abiding
for ever would I rest,
in your dear love confiding,
and with your presence blessed.
4 Lord, be my consolation,
my shield when death is near;
remind me of your Passion,
be with me when I fear.
My eyes shall then behold you,
upon your cross shall dwell,
my heart by faith enfold you;
and who dies thus, dies well.

O Master, Let Me Walk with Thee
Author: Washington Gladden Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 571 hymnals Scripture: Luke 6:40 Lyrics: 1 O Master, let me walk with thee
in lowly paths of service free;
tell me thy secret; help me bear
the strain of toil, the fret of care.

by some clear, winning word of love;
teach me the wayward feet to stay,
and guide them in the homeward way.

in closer, dearer company,
in work that keeps faith sweet and strong,
in trust that triumphs over wrong.

far down the future's broadening way;
in peace that only thou canst give,
with thee, O Master, let me live. Topics: Christian Life; Discipleship and Mission; Hope; Ministry; Personal Peace Used With Tune: MARYTON
