I påsken fikk jeg mulighet til å gå på gudstjeneste i utlandet. Vi var samlet i fellesskap rundt salmer, ord og nattverd, og en av salmene gikk «rett hjem» hos meg:

Brother, sister let me serve you, 
let me be as Christ to you; 
pray that I may have the grace to 
let you be my servant too. 

We are pilgrims on a journey 
and companions on the road; 
we are here to help each other 
walk the mile and bear the load. 

I will hold the Christ-light for you 
in the night-time of your fear; 
I will hold my hand out to you, 
speak the peace you long to hear. 

I will weep when you are weeping; 
when you laugh I’ll laugh with you; 
I will share your joy and sorrow
till we’ve seen this journey through. 

When we sing to God in heaven 
we shall find such harmony, 
born of all we’ve known together 
of Christ’s love and agony. 

Brother, sister let me serve you, 
let me be as Christ to you; 
pray that I may have the grace to 
let you be my servant too.
