EN 4836 We Bid Thee Welcome in the Name

1Cor.4.1

Versi Version 1

1

We bid thee welcome in the name

Of Jesus, our exalted Head.

Come as a servant, so He came,

And we receive thee in His stead.

2

Come as a shepherd—guard and keep

This fold from hell and world and sin;

Nourish the lambs and feed the sheep;

The wounded heal, the lost bring in.

3

Come as a teacher—sent from God,

Charged His whole counsel to declare.

Lift o’er our ranks the prophet’s rod

While we uphold thy hands with prayer.

4

Come as an angel—hence to guide

A band of pilgrims on their way,

That, softly walking at thy side,

We fail not, faint not, turn nor stray.

5

Come as a watchman—take thy stand

Upon the tower amidst the sky,

And when the sword comes on the land,

Call us to fight, or warn to fly.

6

Come as a messenger of peace,

Filled with the Spirit, fired with love;

Live to behold our large increase

And die to meet us all above.
