Come, know my joy, the Maker says

Author: Andrew Donaldson, 1951- Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: James 1:17 First Line: "Come, know my joy," the Maker says Lyrics: 1 "Come, know my joy," the Maker says and pours out works of power that sear the sense, defy the mind and fill the soul with awe, and we with open mouth receive God's gifts with infant need, and, sight unfocussed, scarce perceive Love's presence as we feed. 2 The feast we join is long begun; God bids us welcome here to name and use the sovereign gifts within our human care. With God's own joy some seem to soar, a fierce and holy flame; some gifts are thorns we scarce endure to touch, of face, or name. 3 "Come, seek my face,"the Giver says, "with heart and soul and strength; let fear give way to love; come, step upon the waves of faith." Dear Giver, Gift, we seek your face: you share our thorn, our scar. We learn your joy when by your grace we share the gift we are. 4 "Come, learn of me," the Servant says and multiplies a feast of loaves and fish, of bread and wine, transforming every guest. "Come," says the Host, "from west and east bring gifts to share– come eat!– none lost or wasted when God's feast of joy, will be complete."
