Faithful
Sojourners – Text by A Williams ©2013
Tune:
Beach Spring http://www.hymntime.com/tch/mid/b/e/a/c/beach_spring.mid
Commanded
by our creator
to
do justice with our lives
Go
deliver oppressed peoples
with
God's righteousness our guide
refrain:
We
Rejoice with those rejoicing
Weep
along with those who weep
Live
in harmony with each other
Thus
all God's commandments keep
Stand
with those who have been victims
of
much theft and violence too
tossed
aside by all around them
they
call out to me and you
Care
for those the world abandons
Left
alone in a strange place
lost
and looking unto others
just
to find a friendly face
Faithful
sojourners together
we
seek to do the right thing
show
all honor, peace, and mercy
and
in part God's justice bring
Shed
not blood nor carry anger
all
are full of God's great love
Made
whole in the divine image
serve
on earth for God above
