Tune: Aurelia
('The church's one foundation')
********
A church multicultural
We pray we hear your call
The mystery revealéd
Comes to pass as you said
Lord, that Gentiles should be part
In life and mind and heart
Of the same body as Jews
Which your Spirit renews
So included all people
Open to each race, school
Each country and each nation
The worldwide salvation
With Christ the living Head, He
O'er the church e'er Lord be
We members of His body
Th church eternally
For all nations of the earth
Are blessed since Abraham's birth
Such promise was to him made
Foundational and staid
And too a great multitude
A Revelation viewed
By John of all nations, kins
Praising God, freed from sins
For you Lord, true did pray sure
That believers e'ermore
May show that through unity
Message to world, it be
That the Father the Son sent
Who obeyed, no relent
And that the Father loves none
Less than He loves His Son
Christ our peace, for He has made
Peace for us all, price paid
Upon the cross He removed
The wall that hostile proved
'Tween man and God, man and man
No enmity now can
Separate out Christ's people
Where gathered in love all
