Community of Christ

who make the Cross your own,
live out your creed and risk your life
for God alone:
the God who wears your face,
to whom all worlds belong,
whose children are of every race
and every song.
2 Community of Christ,
look past the Church's door
and see the refugee, the hungry,
and the poor.
Take hands with the oppressed,
the jobless in your street,
take towel and water, that you wash
your neighbour's feet.
3 Community of Christ,
through whom the word must sound -
cry out for justice and for peace
the whole world round:
disarm the powers that war
and all that can destroy,
turn bombs to bread, and tears of anguish
into joy.
4 When menace melts away,
so shall God's will be done,
the climate of the world be peace
and Christ its Sun;
our currency be love
and kindliness our law,
our food and faith be shared as one
for evermore. Scripture: Matthew 8:8-17 Languages: English Tune Title: LEONI

Trust ye in his Word, be strong;
For his promises are sure,
His rewards for aye endure.

His no palm that sees decay,
His the joy that shall not fade,
His the light that knows no shade;
3 His the home for spirits blest,
Where he gives them peaceful rest,
Far above the starry skies,
In the bliss of Paradise.
4 Here on earth ye can but clasp
Things that perish in the grasp:
Lift your hearts, then, to the skies;
God Himself shall be your prize.
5 Praise we now with saints at rest
Father, Son and Spirit blest;
For his promises are sure,
His rewards shall aye endure.
Amen.

Soldiers who to Christ belong
Kindred in Christ, for his dear sake
Author: Newton Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #511 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Christian Church Fellowship; Kindred in Christ Lyrics: 1 Kindred in Christ, for his dear sake,
A hearty welcome here receive;
May we together now partake
The joys which only he can give.
2 May he, by those kind care we meet,
Send his good Spirit from above,
Make our communications sweet,
And cause our hearts to burn with love.
3 Forgotten be each worldly theme,
When Christians see each other thus;
We only wish to speak of him
Who lived, and died, and reigns for us.
4 We'll talk of all he did and said,
And suffered for us here below;
The path he marked for us to tread,
And what he's doing for us now.
5 Thus, as the moments pass away,
We'll love, and wonder, and adore;
And hasten on the glorious day
When we shall meet to part no more. Scripture: Psalm 133:1

And Mercy, like a mighty Stream,
O'er all their Sins divinely rolls.

'Tis Christ that suffer'd in their Stead;
And, the Salvation to fulfil
Behold him rising from the Dead.
3 He lives! he lives! and sits above,
For ever interceding there:
Who shall divide us from his Love,
Or what should tempt us to despair?
4 Shall Persecution, or Distress,
Famine, or Sword, or Nakedness?
He that hath lov'd us bears us through,
And makes us more than Conqu'rors too.
5 Faith hath an overcoming Pow'r,
It triumphs in the dying Hour:
Christ is our Life, our Joy, our Hope,
Nor can we sink with such a Prop.
6 Not all that Men on Earth can do,
Nor Pow'rs on high, nor Pow'rs below,
Shall cause his Mercy to remove,
Or wean our Hearts from Christ our Love. Scripture: Romans 8:33-39 Languages: English
Who shall the Lord's Elect condemn?
