I Come with Joy

Author: Brian Wren Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 77 hymnals First Line: I come with joy a child of God Lyrics: 1 I come with joy a child of God, forgiven, loved, and free, the life of Jesus to recall, in love laid down for me. 2 I come with Christians far and near to find, as all are fed, the new community of love in Christ's communion bread. 3 As Christ breaks bread and bids us share, each proud division ends. The love that made us, makes us one, and strangers now are friends. 4 The Spirit of the risen Christ, unseen, but ever near, is in such friendship better known, alive among us here. 5 Together met, together bound by all that God has done, we'll go with joy, to give the world, the love that makes us one.
