Help Us Accept Each Other
Author: Fred Kaan, 1929-2009 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 24 hymnals Topics: Worth of All Persons Lyrics: 1 Help us accept each other
as Christ accepted us;
teach us as sister, brother
each person to embrace.
Be present, Lord, among us
and bring us to believe
we are ourselves accepted
and meant to love and live.
2 Teach us, O Lord, your lessons,
as in our daily life
we struggle to be human
and search for hope and faith.
Teach us to care for people,
for all– not just for some,
to love them as we find them
and as they may become.
3 Let your acceptance change us,
so that we may be moved
in living situations
to do the truth in love;
to practice your acceptance
until we know by heart
the table of forgiveness
and laughter's healing art.
4 Lord, for today's encounters
with all who are in need,
who hunger for acceptance,
for righteousness and bread,
we need new eyes for seeing,
new hands for holding on;
renew us with your Spirit;
Lord, free us, make us one! Scripture: 1 John 4:16 Used With Tune: AURELIA

Author: Shirley Erena Murray, 1931- Meter: 10.9.10.9. Appears in 9 hymnals Topics: Worth of All Persons Lyrics: 1 Who is my mother, who is my brother?
All those who gather round Jesus Christ:
Spirit-blown people born from the gospel
sit at the table, round Jesus Christ.
2 Differently abled, differently labeled
widen the circle round Jesus Christ:
crutches and stigmas, cultures' enigmas
all come together round Jesus Christ.
3 Love will relate us— color or status
can't segregate us, round Jesus Christ:
family failings, human derailings—
all are accepted, round Jesus Christ.
4 Bound by one vision, met for one mission
we claim each other, round Jesus Christ:
here is my mother, here is my brother,
kindred in Spirit, through Jesus Christ. Scripture: Matthew 12:47-50 Used With Tune: KINDRED
Who Is My Mother, Who Is My Brother?

lifting and blessing the weak and reviled,
welcoming those the devout turned away:
Jesus, we need your example today.
2 Take from us prejudice, hatred, and scorn,
fear and suspicion of anyone born
outside our fences of money and race:
help us, O God, not to shun but embrace.
3 Open our hearts and our heads and our hands,
let us experience how caring expands
past all the labels and limits we learn:
Spirit of mercy, enlarge our concern.
4 Three-personed Mystery, multiple One,
joined by diversity never undone:
may we more truly your image reveal,
coming together to make your love real.
