Author: I. Watts Hymnal: Churches of Christ Hymn Book #247 (1974) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the Friend of man,
Invites us to His board;
The welcome summons we obey,
And own our gracious Lord.
2 Here we show forth His love,
Which spake in every breath,
Prompted each action of His life,
And triumphed in His death.
3 Here let our powers unite
His honoured name to raise;
Let grateful joy fill every mind,
And every voice be praise.
4 One faith, one hope, one Lord,
One God alone we know;
Brethren we are; let every heart
With kind affections glow. Topics: The Church The Lord's Supper Languages: English
