Lord God, Your Love Has Called Us Here

Author: Brian Wren (1936- ) Hymnal: Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal #396 (1985) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Doctrines Communion First Line: Lord God, Your love has called us here Lyrics: 1 Lord God, Your love has called us here, As we, by love, for love were made. Your living likeness still we bear Tho’ marred, dishonored, disobeyed. We come, with all our heart and mind Your call to hear, Your love to find. 2 We come with self inflicted pains Of broken trust and chosen wrong, Half free, half bound by inner chains, By social forces swept along, By powers and systems close confined, Yet seeking hope for human kind. 3 Lord God, in Christ You call our name, And then receive us as Your own, Not thro’ some merit, right, or claim, But by Your gracious love alone. We strain to glimpse Your mercy seat, And find You kneeling at our feet. 4 Then take the towel, and break the bread, And humble us, and call us friends. Suffer and serve till all are fed And show how grandly love intends To work till all creation sings, To fill all worlds, to crown all things. 5 Lord God, in Christ You set us free Your life to live, Your joy to share. Give us Your Spirit’s liberty To turn from guilt and dull despair And offer all that faith can do, While love is making all things new. Tune Title: RYBURN

Whatever burdens may bow us down, He by His cross shall lift us up. 4 No end there is! we depart in peace. He loves beyond our uttermost: In every room in our Father’s house, He will be there, as Lord and host. Tune Title: O WALY WALY
