1 Let party strife 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 discord, child of hell,
Be banished 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.
