lyrics

Our God He left his crown and throne
To live among us
In human flesh He made a home
Because He loved us

So we will plant and build our homes
Let our roots grow deep
Be light, befriend, be love and hope
And sow the seeds of peace

Who is our neighbor?
If not the one across the street?
Who is our neighbor?
Open our eyes and let us see
The human heart and deepest need
Of our neighbor
Of our neighbor

Our God He loved a person whole
Washed both sins and feet
The Living Water to our souls
Gave the thirsty drink

So we will listen to their dreams
Stories and their scars
And we will lay them at His feet
Their burden will be ours

We love because He loved us first
