Representative Text

1 How pleasing to behold and see
The friends of Jesus all agree--
To sit around the sacred board
As members of one common Lord.

2 Here we behold the dawn of bliss;
Here behold the Savior's grace;
Here we behold His precious blood,
Which sweetly pleads for us with God.

3 While here we sit we would implore,
That love may spread from shore to shore,
Till all the saints, with us, combine
To praise the Lord in songs divine.

4 To all we freely give our hand,
Who love the Lord in ev'ry land;
For all are one in Christ our head,
To whom be endless honors paid.
