[[Full Lyrics]]

[Verse 1]
When Christ was lifted from the earth
His arms stretched out above
Through every culture, every birth,
To draw an answering love.

[Verse 2]
Still east and west His love extends
And always, near or far,
He calls and claims us as
His friends and loves us as we are.

[Verse 3]
Where generation, class, or race
Divides us to our shame,
He sees not labels but a face,
A person and a name.

[Verse 4]
Thus freely loved, tho’ fully known,
May I in Christ be free
To welcome and accept His own
As Christ accepted me.
