Tune: Servant Song
('Brother, sister, let me serve you')
Galatians 6 v.1-5
************
If one so be in a fault caught
You who [are] spiritual ought
To restore such one with meekness
Consider self too no less
In case you be tempted alos
Bear each others burdens, show
That you so law of Chrsit fulfil
Love, care for neighbour, no ill
For if one does thing he (she) something
When in truth he (she) is nothing
Such one does himself (herself) sure deceive
Of self does falsely believe
But let each one their own work prove
That it be firm, not remove
Then shall he (she) rejoice in self sole
And shall not others control
For each one shall their burden bear
And in others burdens share
Mutual help, love, care, and friendship
In God's service, we worship
