Hymn: Joseph wept, his brothers found him
Proper 15 year A
Genesis 45: 1 – 15
Joseph wept, his brothers found him,
found the one that they had sold,
stunning grace would now confound them,
family bonds would last and hold.
Famine brought them to his table,
desperation drove them on,
from their hopelessness and hunger,
seeking Jacob's long lost son...
Tune: CROSS OF JESUS
Ninth Sunday after Pentecost, Genesis, 45: 1 – 15, Hymn,
Joseph, grace, family, famine, reconciliation, desperation, greed, selfishness,
providence, transformation, distress
