Author: Brian Wren Hymnal: PH1990 #436 (1990) Meter: Irregular Tune Title: WHITFIELD Lyrics: 1 We are your people:
Lord, by Your grace,
You dare to make us Christ to our neighbors
of every nation and race.
2 Called to portray You, help us to live
Closer than neighbors, open to strangers,
able to clash and forgive.
3 Glad of tradition, help us to see
In all life's changing where You are leading,
Where our best efforts should be.
4 Joined in community, breaking Your bread,
May we discover gifts in each other,
willing to lead and be led.
5 Lord, as we minister in different ways,
May all we're doing show that you're living,
meeting Your love with our praise.
