When Hate Claims Christ’s Name – v4

Nothing Christian
nothing of Jesus
of the One who descended
who walked as a man

Nothing of Christ
in burning a cross
nothing Christian in this
especially in the Deep South

When Hate claims Christ’s name
hurting his people
his ministry here
the hope of the nations

Stand with Jesus
against hate, injustice
speak out against them
for they are not Christian

Stand with Christ
our rock, our salvation
his message stronger
his light the way
