But one great fellowship of love
Throughout the whole wide earth.

Their high communion find;
His service is the golden cord
Close binding all mankind.

Join hands, then, brothers of the faith,
Whate'er your race may be.
Who serves my Father as a son
Is surely kin to me.

In Him meet south and north;
All Christly souls are one in Him
Throughout the whole wide earth.
