One Human Family God Has Made

[Verso 1]
 
    G            Em 
One human family God has made, 
Am7     D           G 
and all for each to care. 
    G                Em 
One world, to be the home of all. 
Am7          D         G 
with all its wealth to share. 
Am7            D7          Em 
One Christ, to manifest on earth 

                     C   D7 
love’s ultimate des—ign. 
    G                  Em 
One Church to know the mystery 
   Am7    D7        G 
of broken bread and wine. 


[Verso 2]
 
    G                    Em 
One race, one world — yet torn apart, 
Am7         D       G 
we spurn the way of love. 
   G                 Em 
But still ahead, the Christ leads on 
Am7           D         G 
and calls his Church to move 
Am7          D7                Em 
from love of power to power of love, 
                    C     D7 
to give the world to all — 
   G                   Em 
to trust the love that conquered death, 
    Am7     D7   G 
outside the city wall. 


[Verso 3]

    G            Em 
And are we brave enough to join 
Am7             D       G 
with that great company — 
    G                  Em 
the cost not less than all we have 
Am7        D       G 
and are or hope to be — 
Am7              D7 
the bitter cup of human sin 
Em                    C      D7 
to drink with him who died, 
    G             Em 
and take his love outside the wall to 
 Am7    D7   G 
all the crucified? 


[Verso 4]

      G                 Em 
Claim him who claims us for his own, 
Am7          D        G 
to share his pain and grief, 
   G                   Em 
to bear the scars that stamp us his — 
   Am7       D   G 
the hallmark of belief. 
Am7                D7 
As partners of the living Christ, 
 Em                    C      D7 
who risk the path he trod, 
     G                 Em 
with wondering love we find we share 
    Am7     D7      G 
the timeless joy of God.
