Tune:INVITATION
Composer:Wallace

369. Brotherly Love

1 How pleasant and how good it is
When brethren in the Lord
In one another's joy delight
And dwell in sweet accord.

2 Such love is like anointing oil
In consecration poured;
Such love is like the morning dew,
With sweet refreshment stored.

3 To those who dwell in brotherhood
The Lord His blessing sends,
He crowns them with the crown of life,
Of life that never ends.
