Lyics

BEHOLD how good a thing it is,

And how becoming well,

Together such as brethren are

In unity to dwell!



Like precious ointment on the head,

That down the beard did flow,

Ev'n Aaron's beard, and to the skirts

Did of his garments go.



As Hermon's dew, the dew that doth

On Zion's hills descend,

For there the blessing God comands,

Life that shall never end.
