Hymn of the week #10

1. In the church of Jesus there is love for you,
   Love most pure and tender, love most deep and true;
   Why should you be lonely, why for friendship sigh,
   When the church of Jesus has a full supply?

2. In the church of Jesus there is life for you,
   Warm as summer sunshine, sweet as morning dew;
   Why should you be fearful, why take anxious thought,
   Since the church of Jesus cares for those He bought?

3. In the church of Jesus there is work for you;
   Such as even angels might rejoice to do;
   Why stand idly sighing for some life work grand,
   While the church of Jesus seeks your reaping hand?

4. In the church of Jesus there's a place for you;
   Glorious, bright, and joyous, right and peaceful too;
   Why then like a wand'rer, roam with weary pace,
   If the church of Jesus holds for you a place.

I like this song because it reflects a fundamental truth, that Jesus has a place for all his saints and that they all have a function in His church.
