I Come with Joy
Author: Brian Wren (1936-) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 73 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 1:3-9 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. Topics: Eucharist; Eucharist; Forgiveness; Unity (church) Used With Tune: LAND OF REST

We Walk by Faith and Not by Sight
Author: Henry Alford Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 72 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 1:8-9 Lyrics: 1 We walk by faith and not by sight;
with gracious words draw near,
O Christ, who spoke as none e'er spoke:
“My peace be with you here.”
2 We may not touch your hands and side,
nor follow where you trod;
but in your promise we rejoice
and cry, "My Lord and God!"
3 Help then, O Lord, our unbelief;
and may our faith abound
to call on you when you are near
and seek where you are found.
4 And when our life of faith is done,
in realms of clearer light
may we behold you as you are,
with full and endless sight.

We Would See Jesus; Lo! His Star Is Shining
Author: J. Edgar Park Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 69 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 1:8 Lyrics: 1 We would see Jesus; lo! His star is shining
Above the stable while the angels sing;
There in a manger on the hay reclining,
Haste, let us lay our gifts before the King.
2 We would see Jesus, Mary's Son most holy,
Light of the village life from day to day;
Shining revealed through every task most lowly,
The Christ of God, the Life, the Truth, the Way.
3 We would see Jesus, on the mountain teaching,
With all the listening people gathered round;
While birds and flowers and sky above are preaching
The blessedness which simple trust has found.
4 We would see Jesus, in His work of healing,
At eventide before the sun was set;
Divine and human, in His deep revealing,
Of God and man in loving service met.
5 We would see Jesus; in the early morning
Still as of old He calleth, "Follow Me";
Let us arise, all meaner service scorning:
Lord, we are Thine, we give ourselves to Thee!
