Lyics

COME, dear friends, we are all brethren,

Bound for Canaan's happy land;

Come, unite and walk together,

Christ, our leader, gives command.

Cease to boast of party merit,

Wound the cause of God no more,

Be united by his Spirit:

Zion's peace again restore.



Now our hand, our heart and spirit,

Here in fellowship we give;

Let us love and peace inherit,

Show the world how Christians live.

We'll be one in Christ our Saviour,

Male and female, bond and free!

Christ is all in all forever,

In him we shall blessed be.
