Who Is My Neighbor?

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 14.14.4.7.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: "Who is my neighbor?" a lawyer asked Jesus, to test him Lyrics: “Who is my neighbor?” a lawyer asked Jesus, to test him. So Jesus told him a story to answer his question: Lonely the way… Lonely the traveler one day… Robbers attacked him and left him. First down the road came a priest who just chose to ignore him. Next came a Levite who wouldn’t do anything for him. Then one despised, Hated in everyone’s eyes, Knelt down to heal and restore him. Tending the wounds of the man, the Samaritan labored. He was the one with compassion, the one in God’s favor. Not by a creed But by responding to need, He proved to be the good neighbor.

Thou Must Increase, Lord

Author: G. T. Rygh; Gustav Jensen Meter: 14.14.4.7.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Thou must increase, Lord, and I must decrease Lyrics: 1 Thou must increase, Lord, and I must decrease; yea, I offer All that I have, though but poor is the gift that I proffer; The poorest friend Of the King's Son may attend And be a guest at Thy supper. 2 Thou art exalted on high above angels and mortals; Thou art acclaimed as their King by the heav'nly immortals; I am of earth, Sinful am I from my birth, Unfit to enter Thy portals. 3 Yet hast Thou called me, Lord, to Thy Son's banquet in heaven; Even to me has the welcome to glory been given; Thou call'st me friend, And to me Thou dost extend Pardon, of sin and guilt shriven. 4 Fill Thou my heart, dear Lord, only with Thee as my treasure; Fill Thou my soul with Thy Spirit in bountiful measure; Emptied of mine, Filled only with what is Thine, Thy will my life's chiefest pleasure. 5 O that all nations might join in a chorus and praise Thee! O that souls ev'rywhere, seeing Thy scars, might confess Thee! May Thy dear voice Move them to come and rejoice, And as Thy friends ever bless Thee.
