Author: Tom Colvin Hymnal: Sing With Me #249 (2006) Meter: 7.7.9 with refrain Topics: Show Being the Church in the World First Line: Kneels at the feet of his friends Lyrics: Refrain:
Jesu, Jesu, fill us with your love,
show us how to serve the neighbors
we have from you.
1 Kneels at the feet of his friends,
silently washes their feet,
Master who acts as a slave to them. (Refrain)
2 Neighbors are rich folk and poor,
neighbors are black, brown, and white,
neighbors are nearby and far away. (Refrain)
3 These are the ones we should serve,
these are the ones we should love;
all these are neighbors to us and you. (Refrain)
4 Loving puts us on our knees,
serving as though we are slaves:
this is the way we should live with you. (Refrain)
