From the Head to the Body

From the Head to the Body flows a rich supply.

Thus as members of Christ we must relate.

Every need in the Body can be met thereby.

Build us up in Your Body

we pray.

Members one of another

the Body will grow

As we’re knit together in our inward parts.

Open firstly to Christ our Head

then life He will bestow

Through the function in measure of each part.

Christ is Head of the Body; we’re His members true.

When we hold fast the Head

life freely flows.

As we’re daily enjoying

we with Christ are infused

All His heart for the Body we’ll know.

For the sake of Your Body

Lord

unveil our eyes

Deal with self

all the ground to You we give.

Save us from independence and all natural ties.

Blend us all in Your Body to live.

One with Christ in His Body

in the rich supply

Every part causing growth in love each day.

Thus God’s purpose eternal will be realized—

Christ expressed through His Body for aye.
