Representative Text

1 One sole baptismal sign,
One Lord, below, above,
One faith, one hope divine,
One only watchword, love:
From different temples though it rise,
One song ascendeth to the skies.

2 Our Sacrifice is one;
Our Priest before the throne,
The slain, the risen Son,
Redeemer, Lord alone;
Thou Who didst raise Him from the dead,
Unite Thy people in their Head.

AMEN.

Author: George Robinson

Robinson, George, contributed five hymns to J. Leifchild's Original Hymns, 1842, from which "One sole baptismal sign" (Unity), and "When to the exiled seer were given" (New Jerusalem), are taken with alterations. --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, Appendix, Part II (1907) Go to person page >
