247. Jesus, the Friend of man

1 Jesus, the Friend of man,
Invites us to His board;
The welcome summons we obey,
And own our gracious Lord.

2 Here we show forth His love,
Which spake in every breath,
Prompted each action of His life,
And triumphed in His death.

3 Here let our powers unite
His honoured name to raise;
Let grateful joy fill every mind,
And every voice be praise.

4 One faith, one hope, one Lord,
One God alone we know;
Brethren we are; let every heart
With kind affections glow.
