After Pentecost     Pentecost 4     Matthew 11 : 16-19 & 25-30, particularly verses 28-30 

His love (YA No 56)

When Jesus walked the dusty road

He knew the outcast’s heavy load

Was caused by tax and temple code -

He brought to them his love, his love.

 

The weak, the wretched and the poor,

The refugee outside the law,

The pris’ner and the shameful whore -

He brought to them his love, his love.

 

How can we fathom such a man,

A rabbi, whom they tried to ban,

But who revealed to us love’s plan -

He gave to others his love, his love.

 

When we remember Jesus here,

And know that he is always near;

This love that casts out all our fear;

We share with others his love, his love.
