Who Is My Neighbor?

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 14.14.4.7.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: "Who is my neighbor?" a lawyer asked Jesus, to test him Lyrics: “Who is my neighbor?” a lawyer asked Jesus, to test him. So Jesus told him a story to answer his question: Lonely the way… Lonely the traveler one day… Robbers attacked him and left him. First down the road came a priest who just chose to ignore him. Next came a Levite who wouldn’t do anything for him. Then one despised, Hated in everyone’s eyes, Knelt down to heal and restore him. Tending the wounds of the man, the Samaritan labored. He was the one with compassion, the one in God’s favor. Not by a creed But by responding to need, He proved to be the good neighbor.

God, May Your Justice Roll Down

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 14.14.4.7.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: God, may your justice roll down like the waters you send here Lyrics: God, may your justice roll down like the waters you send here, And may your righteousness flow like a stream without end here! Praying this prayer, many have struggled and dared, All for the world you intend here. Christ, we give thanks for past saints who renewed education, Freed the oppressed, brought your healing and fought segregation. Savior and Lord, great were the risks they endured, Bearing your hope and salvation. We as your church now remember these stories of others And pray your Spirit will send us, as your sons and daughters. Show us the way we, too, can serve you each day Till justice rolls down like waters. Topics: Call/Vocation; Justice Scripture: Amos 5:24 Used With Tune: LOBE DEN HERREN
