O God, you have called us, inviting us in; You've made us your household and freed us from sin. From youngest to oldest, we find in this place Your waters of welcome, your family, your grace. We've heard here your welcome and also your call; Your Spirit inspires us to share Christ with all. The life we receive here is life we can share; We'll carry your message of love everywhere.

Christ is the one who calls

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Vocation Lyrics: 1 Christ is the one who calls, the one who loved and came, to whom by right it falls to bear the highest name: and still today our hearts are stirred to hear his word and walk his way. 2 Christ is the one who seeks, to whom our souls are known. The word of love he speaks can wake a heart of stone; for at that sound the blind can see, the slave is free, the lost are found. 3 Christ is the one who died forsaken and betrayed; who, mocked and crucified, the price of pardon paid. Our dying Lord, what grief and loss, what bitter cross, our souls restored! 4 Christ is the one who rose in glory from the grave, to share his life with those whom once he died to save. He drew death's sting and broke its chains, who lives and reigns, our risen King. 5 Christ is the one who sends, his story to declare; who calls his servants friends and gives them news to share. His truth proclaim in all the earth, his matchless worth and saving name. Scripture: Matthew 28:18-20 Used With Tune: LOVE UNKNOWN
