Who Is My Mother, Who Is My Brother
Author: Shirley Erena Murray Meter: 5.5.5.4 D Appears in 9 hymnals First Line: Who is my mother Lyrics: 1 Who is my mother, who is my brother?
All those who gather round Jesus Christ:

sit at the table, round Jesus Christ.

widen the circle round Jesus Christ:
crutches and stigmas, cultures' enigmas
all come together round Jesus Christ.

can't segregate us, round Jesus Christ:
family failings, human derailings--
all are accepted, round Jesus Christ.

we claim each other, round Jesus Christ:
here is my mother, here is my brother,
kindred in Spirit, through Jesus Christ. Topics: The Church as Community Unity; Christian unity; Fellowship of Believers; Love for Others Scripture: Mark 3:31-35 Used With Tune: KINDRED

Take My Gifts and Let Me Love You
Author: Shirley Erena Murray Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Take my gifts and let me love You,
God who first of all loved me,
gave me light and food and shelter,
gave me life and set me free.
Now because Your love has touched me,
I have love to give away,
now the bread of love is rising,
loaves of love to multiply.
2 Take the fruit that I have gathered
from the tree Your Spirit sowed,
harvest of Your own compassion,
juice that makes the wine of God,
spiced with humor, laced with laughter--
flavor of the Jesus life,
tang of risk and new adventure,
taste and zest beyond belief.
3 Take whatever I can offer--
gifts that I have yet to find,
skills that I am slow to sharpen,
talents of the hand and mind,
things made beautiful for others
in the place where I must be:
take my gifts and let me love You,
God who first of all loved me. Topics: The Church on Mission Stewardship; Love for God; Stewardship; Thankfulness and Thanksgiving Used With Tune: MADILL

As He Gathered at His Table
Author: Paul A. Richardson Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 6 hymnals First Line: As He gathered at His table Lyrics: 1 As He gathered at His table
those who longed to know the way,
Christ proclaimed a holy mystery;
still His words call us today.
2 As He took the towel and basin,
not as master, but as friend,
Christ portrayed the way of service;
still in serving we must bend.
3 As He blessed the bread and broke it,
human need to satisfy,
Christ made even traitors welcome;
still we question, "Is it I?"
4 As He took the cup and shared it,
telling of the Father's care,
Christ poured out Himself in promise;
still that covenant we must share.
5 As they sang a hymn together,
praising Israel's saving King,
hearts and voices made one music;
still delivering love we sing.
6 As He went into the garden
praying, "Father, use Your Son,"
Christ alone could know its meaning;
still we pray, "God's will be done."
7 Though this feast be one of symbols,
what we celebrate is real;
still Christ welcomes to His table;
still Christ serves us at His meal. Topics: The Church at Worship Lord's Supper; Jesus Christ-Life and Ministry; Lord's Supper; Ministry Scripture: Matthew 26:26-30 Used With Tune: STUART
