We've become the Lord's dear brothers
|
|
| 1. | We've become the Lord's dear brothers |
| | Through His resurrection pow'r; |
| | He desires many brothers |
| | Sharing in His triumph hour! |
| | Jesus is our Elder Brother, |
| | First-born of God's sons is He; |
| | He came forth in resurrection, |
| | >From religion He is free! |
| | As His church we come together; |
| | Oldness, form, and self deny; |
| | Just to meet with our Big Brother, |
| | Him alone to glorify! |
| 2. | In our Brother's resurrection |
| | Resurrected we must meet, |
| | Never in our natural standing- |
| | This will make His joy complete! |
| 3. | Every day we must see Jesus |
| | As we're eating of the Word; |
| | Then we'll run to all the meetings |
| | Burning, bubbling with the Lord! |
| 4. | In the meetings we are feasting |
| | On the food unlimited. |
| | Jesus always satisfies us, |
| | Feeding us the living bread! |
| 5. | We would satisfy our Brother, |
| | Even though our portion's small. |
| | Every one must share his "new dish" |
| | For the benefit of all! |
| 6. | Not for message or for speaker, |
| | But to meet the Lord we're here; |
| | Caring only for His presence, |
| | We would see our Brother dear! |
