Scripture & A Snapshot ~ week 23

Mark 12:31 Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

BROTHER, LET ME BE YOUR SERVANT
Let me be as Christ to you;
Pray that I may have the grace
To let you be my servant, too.

We are pilgrims on a journey,
We are brothers on the road;
We are here to help each other
Walk the mile and bear the load.

I will hold the Christlight for you
In the night-time of your fear;
I will hold my hand out to you,
Speak the peace you long to hear.

I will weep when you are weeping,
When you laugh I'll laugh with you;
I will share your joy and sorrow
Till we've seen this journey through.

When we sing to God in heaven
We shall find such harmony,
Born of all we've known together
Of Christ's love and agony.

Brother, let me be your servant,
Let me be as Christ to you;
Pray that I may have the grace
To let you be my servant, too.
grace..Trish

  5. I really like this verse of that hymn - I will weep when you are weeping,
    When you laugh I'll laugh with you;
    I will share your joy and sorrow
    Till we've seen this journey through.

    It really describes that 2nd commandment so well.

  11. Hi Trish,
    I hope you have had a great weekend

    That T-shirt got my attention right away . I needed to be reminded of this :o), and these words;
    "Brother, let me be your servant," Let me be as Christ to you;"

    That was so sweet of your husband to model the T-shirt.
    God bless you and your week,
    Michele
