1 Let party-names no more
The Christian world o'erspread:
Gentile and Jew, and bond and free
Are one in Christ their Head.
2 Among the saints on earth,
Let mutual love be found;
Heirs of the same inheritance,
With mutual blessings crown'd.
3 Let envy, child of hell!
Be banish'd far away:
Those should in strictest friendship dwell,
Who the same Lord obey.
4 Thus will the church below
Resemble that above,
Where streams of pleasure ever flow,
And ev'ry heart is love.
