"Come join us in community"--based on Belhar Confession Article 2--suggested tune: McKEE, CM (Rejoice #410)
 

Come join us in community;

      the Church of God’s own Son

grows into a reality

      when we all live as one.

Come join us as we show our friends

      and shout out in the streets

how every hate and discord ends

      for people Jesus meets.

Come join us as we manifest

      God’s love in give and take,

in duties that bring out our best,

      and in the bread we break.

Come join us to confess God’s Name,

      God’s baptism, God’s cup.

We do not need to be the same

      to bond and be built up.

With every tool the Spirit gives

      we set all people free

to share the life that Jesus lives

      joined in community.
