Water, Basin and Towel

[Chorus] What’s the cost to serve another? The poor, the lost, the weak, your brother? Our actions reflect Yeshua’s love…that rains down from His throne above Somber was the night and meal A tension… one could see and feel We spoke of Yahweh’s faithfulness In light of mankind’s wretchedness Our memories they were sparked to flame We sang the glory of Jehovah’s name Who ransomed us from slavery From Egypt’s bonds…. He set us free The power great of God most high The plagues He sent…our Adonai To humble man, the pride of pharaoh And lead us on the straight and narrow We walked with Him, three years went by The Son of Man, our soul’s Rabbi We saw him heal and raise the dead The Word made flesh…made demons dread [Chorus] What’s the cost to serve another? The poor, the lost, the weak, your brother? Our actions reflect Yeshua’s love…that rains down from His throne above He rose with basin, water and towel To wash our feet with dirt so foul His movements tender, such love and grace A burden etched upon his face No sound….just water…washing clean The filth, like sin in hearts unseen A servant’s work, a lesson taught By hands the very heavens wrought “Do you understand?, he asked The meaning…behind….this humble task As I loved you, so love one another In word and deed, now serve your brother [Chorus] What’s the cost to serve another? The poor, the lost, the weak, your brother? Our actions reflect Yeshua’s love…that rains down from His throne above And so we share the gospel news That Jesus died for Greeks and Jews Yeshua calls the lost and weak His Kingdom’s for the humble and meek Our actions must reflect the Word No works? your faith remains unheard So serve the orphan, the widow and poor And guide them to His heavenly shore [Chorus] What’s the cost to serve another? The poor, the lost, the weak, your brother? Our actions reflect Yeshua’s love…that rains down from His throne above
