Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, 1926- Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O changeless Christ, for ever new,
who walked our earthly ways,
still draw our hearts as once you drew
the hearts of other days.
2 As once you spoke by plain and hill
or taught by shore and sea,
so be today our teacher still,
O Christ of Galilee.
3 As wind and storm their Master heard
and his command fulfilled,
may troubled hearts receive your word,
the tempest-tossed be stilled.
4 And as of old to all who prayed
your healing hand was shown,
so be your touch upon us laid,
unseen but not unknown.
5 In broken bread, in wine outpoured,
your new and living way
proclaim to us, O risen Lord,
O Christ of this our day.
6 O changeless Christ, till life is past
your blessing still be given;
then bring us home, to taste at last
the timeless joys of heaven. Topics: Eternal Life; Eucharist; Jesus Christ Earthly life; Jesus Christ Redeemer Scripture: Hebrews 13:8 Used With Tune: ST BOTOLPH
