Hymn 22

Brother let me be your servant

Richard Gillard

Verse 1

Brother let me be your servant,

Let me be as Christ to you;

Pray that I might have the grace,

To let you be my servant too.

Verse 2

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.

Verse 3

We’ll hold the Christ-light for you,

In the night-time of your fear;

I will hold my hand out to you,

Speak the peace you long to hear.

Verse 4

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.

Verse 5

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.

Verse 6

Brother let me be your servant,

Let me be as Christ to you;

Pray that I might have the grace,

To let you be my servant too.
