Reliable Big Brother

Brotherly love and sisterly care
– something so precious, often so rare.
Jesus declared that all who believe
His brotherly love and support would receive.

Perfect this Brother, dependable, kind
– he had experienced pressures we find –
lived as a man, He does understand
our needs when we’re tempted – Brother and Friend.

Our Brother accepted the rod we were due
so He ‘took the rap’ for me and for you
if you accept, submit, bow to Him,
then He’s your Saviour, Shepherd and King.

All who believe are one family,
brothers and sisters in Christ, there should be
love and commitment, and seeking the best
for one another, in fellowship blest.
