Devotion
A hymn for me has to have two things: a tune that I do not get tired of and great words that I can use my imagination to relate to.
“Gather Us In” for me fits both criteria. It acknowledges God’s presence wherever the hymn is sung and names us all—the lost and forsaken, the rich and the haughty, the blind and the lame. We have become God’s own through our baptisms and the eating and drinking of the wine of compassion and the bread that is Christ.
Prayer
Gracious God, may we see you in all people within all circumstances. Amen.
