Jesus, United by Thy Grace

Verse 1

Jesus, united by thy grace
and each to each endeared,
with confidence we seek thy face
and know our prayer is heard.

Verse 2

Help us to help
each other, Lord,
each other’s cross to bear;
let all their friendly aid afford,
and feel each other’s care.

Verse 3

Up unto thee,
our living Head,
let us in all things grow;
till thou hast made us free indeed
and spotless here below.

Verse 4

Touched by the lodestone
of thy love,
let all our hearts agree,
and ever toward each other move,
and ever move toward thee.

Verse 5

To thee, inseparably joined,
let all our spirits cleave;
O may we all the loving mind
that was in thee receive.

Verse 6

This is the bond
of perfectness,
thy spotless charity;
O let us, still we pray, possess
the mind that was in thee.
