Saturday Song: We Are One Body

On weekdays during the season of Lent, we post daily meditations on our website, and on Saturdays we include a piece of music, as well. These songs are submitted by parish family members and friends of Christ Church, and meant to uplift, comfort, and inspire. We hope that you enjoy.

We Are One Body

We are one body, one body in Christ; And we do not stand alone. We are one body, one body in Christ; And he came that we might have life.

I will live in you, and you will live in my love. When you eat my body and you drink my blood, I will live in you, and you will live in my love.

Will you feed my hungry, will you help my lame? See the unborn baby, the forgotten one, They are not forsaken, they are not unloved.

I am the Way, the Truth, the Life; He who believes in me will have eternal life. I am the Way, the Truth, the Life, I am the Final Sacrifice, I am the Way, the Truth, the Life; He who believes in me will have eternal life.

Through the tears and sorrow, through the toils and strife. Listen when I call you, for I know your need, Come to me, your shepherd, for my flock I feed.

Jesus is the Lord and he will come again. At the name of Jesus ev'ry knee shall bend; Jesus is the Lord and he will come again.

Come receive my spirit, with my gifts be filled. For you are my body, you're my hands and feet. Speak my word of life to ev'ryone you meet.
