Let party names no moreThe Christian world o'erspread;Gentile and Jew, and bond and free,Are one in Christ, their Head.

Among the saints on earthLet mutual love be found,Heirs of the same inheritance,With mutual blessings crowned.

Thus will the church belowResemble that above,Where streams of pleasure ever flow,And every heart is love.

And, till we reach that place,Our daily prayer shall beThat we may dwell before thee, Lord,In love and unity.
