Romans 15

We who are strong must gladly bear

The failings others carry.

Not pleasing self, but building up

Our neighbor — love not wary.

For even Christ did not seek

To please Himself alone.

“The insults cast on You,” He bore —

He carried as His own.

Whatever once was written down

Was written for our good,

That through endurance and through hope

We stand as people should.

May God who gives endurance, hope,

Grant unity of mind —

That with one voice and one accord

His glory we may find.

Receive each other as Christ received —

For God’s own glory shown.

For Christ became a servant first

To Israel alone,

Confirming promises of old

Made to the fathers true —

And so the Gentiles also praise

For mercy breaking through.

“Rejoice, O nations, with His own.”

“Praise Him, all you lands.”

“The Root of Jesse rises now —

Hope for distant lands.”

May God of hope now fill your hearts

With joy and peace inside,

So by the Spirit’s power strong

In hope you may abide.

I am convinced of you, my friends —

You’re filled with goodness still,

Able to instruct in love

According to His will.

Yet boldly I have written

Because of grace assigned —

A minister of Christ to bring

The Gentiles into line.

As priestly servant of the Word,

Proclaiming Christ alone,

That offering of the nations

To God might now be known.

From Jerusalem afar

To Illyricum’s far side,

By word and deed and Spirit’s power

The gospel multiplied.

I made it my ambition

Where Christ was not yet named,

To build on no one else’s work —

But preach where none had claimed.

Now long I’ve hoped to visit you

As I pass through on way,

Supported in the mission still

Toward Spain some future day.

But first I go to serve the saints

In need at Jerusalem.

For Gentile gifts now bless the root

From which salvation stemmed.

Strive with me in prayer, dear friends,

That service may succeed.

And may the God of peace be near

In every hour of need.

Hope unites.

Christ sends.

God fills with joy.
