We Meet You, O Christ

Author: Fred Kaan Hymnal: Ecumenical Praise #112 (1977) First Line: We meet you, O Christ, in many a guise Lyrics: 1 We meet you, O Christ, in many a guise; your image we see in simple and wise. You live in a palace, exist in a shack; we see you, the gard'ner, a tree on your back. 2 In millions alive, away and abroad; involv'd in our life you live down the road. Imprison'd in systems you long to be free; we see you, Lord Jesus, still bearing your tree. 3 We hear you, O Man, in agony cry; for freedom you march, in riots you die. Your face in the papers we read and we see. The tree must be planted by human decree. 4 You choose to be made at one with the earth; the dark of the grave prepares for your birth. Your death is your rising, creative your Word; the tree springs to life and our hope is restored.
