Jesu, Jesu,
fill us with your love,
show us how to serve
the neighbors we have from you.
1 Kneels at the feet of his friends,
silently washes their feet,
Master who acts as a slave to them. [Refrain]
2 Neighbors are wealthy and poor,
varied in color and race,
neighbors are near us and far away. [Refrain]
3 These are the ones we should serve,
these are the ones we should love,
all these are neighbors to us and you. [Refrain]
4 Loving puts us on our knees,
silently washing their feet,
this is the way we should live with you. [Refrain] Used With Tune: CHEREPONI
Jesu, Jesu, Fill Us with Your Love
