Kindred in Christ, for his dear sake

Author: Newton Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 215 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 18:20 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.

Redeeming Love

Author: George Burder Appears in 100 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 18:20 First Line: Sweet the time, exceeding sweet! Lyrics: 1 Sweet the time, exceeding sweet! When the saints together meet, When the Saviour is the theme, When they joy to sing of him. 2 Sing we then eternal love, Such as did the Father move: He beheld the world undone, Loved the world, and gave his Son. 3 Sing the Son's amazing love; How he left the realms above, Took our nature and our place, Lived and died to save our race. 4 Sing we, too, the Spirit's love; With our stubborn hearts he strove, Filled our minds with grief and fear, Brought the precious Saviour near. 5 Sweet the place, exceeding sweet, Where the saints in glory meet; Where the Saviour's still the theme, Where they see and sing of him.
