Unity Utterance

orchidee



Tune: Richmond

('Fill thou my life, O Lord my God')

Ephesians 4 v.1-4

*********

Do live worthy of the calling

Of the Lord, in each thing

Whate'er your gifts, howe'er you serve

From calling do not swerve

 

Have all lowliness and  meekness

Gentleness, humbleness

Longsuffering, do patient be

Bear with all graciously

 

Forbearing each other in love

The Spirit, holy dove

Shall help you, and endeavour to

Keep His unity too

 

Aim to keep it in bond of peace

So unity ne'er cease

One together in Christ the Lord

And growing in His word
