O Brother Man
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 154 hymnals Topics: Christ Example First Line: O brother man, fold to thy heart thy brother Lyrics: 1 O brother man, fold to thy heart thy brother;
Where pity dwells, the peace of God is there;
To worship rightly is to love each other,
Each smile a hymn, each kindly deed a prayer.
2 For he whom Jesus loved has truly spoken:
The holier worship which He deigns to bless
Restores the lost, and binds the spirit broken,
And feeds the widow and the fatherless.
3 Follow with reverent steps the great example
Of Him whose holy work was doing good;
So shall the wide earth seem our Father's temple,
Each loving life a psalm of gratitude.
4 Then shall all shackles fall; the stormy clangor
Of wild war music o'er the earth shall cease;
Love shall tread out the baleful fire of anger,
And in its ashes plant the tree of peace.
Amen. Scripture: Acts 10:38 Used With Tune: WELWYN

And live and die in Thee.

Great God, Your Love Has Called Us Here
Author: Brian Wren Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 34 hymnals Topics: Christ's Example; Christ's Example Lyrics: 1 Great God, your love has called us here
as we, by love, for love were made.
Your living likeness still we bear,
though marred, dishonored, disobeyed.
We come, with all our heart and mind
your call to hear, your love to find.
2 We come with self-inflicted pains
of broken trust and chosen wrong,
half-free, half-bound by inner chains,
by social forces swept along,
by pow'rs and systems close confined
yet seeking hope for human-kind.
3 Great God, in Christ you call our name
and then receive us as your own
not through some merit, right, or claim
but by your gracious love alone.
We strain to glimpse your mercy seat
and find you kneeling at our feet.
4 Then take the towel, and break the bread,
and humble us, and call us friends.
Suffer and serve till all are fed,
and show how grandly love intends
to work till all creation sings,
to fill all worlds, to crown all things.
5 Great God, in Christ you set us free
your life to live, your joy to share.
Give us your Spirit's liberty
to turn from guilt and dull despair
and offer all that faith can do
while love is making all things new. Scripture: John 13:1-20 Used With Tune: ABINGDON
Great God, Your Love Has Called Us Here
