Hymn - In Christ there is no east or west
This is one of the hymn titles widely recommended for the lectionary today. Hear it sung by the great Mavis Staples. Note that these are different words from the hymn we sing.
In Christ there is no East or West, No North or South; Only one great love Inside and out. True hearts everywhere Some deaf and some blind Singin' one melody Lost souls cannot find. Join hands and have faith, Whatever your race may be! Who serves my Father as a son Is surely kin to me.
In Christ now meet both East and West, There is no black or white Only one great love Hatred cannot divide. Join hands and have faith, Forgive your enemy Surely we're all a part Of one big family.
Join hands and have faith, Whatever your race may be! Who serves my Father as a son Is surely kin to me. Join hands and have faith, Forgive your enemy Surely we're all a part Of one big family. |
