  1. 1O brother man! Fold to thy heart thy brother,
  2. Where pity dwells, the peace of God is there;
  3. To worship rightly is to love each other,
  4. Each smile a hymn, each kindly deed a prayer.
  5. 2For he whom Jesus loved hath truly spoken:
  6. The holier worship which He deigns to bless
  7. Restores the lost, and binds the spirit broken,
  8. And feeds the widow and the fatherless!
  9. 3Follow with rev'rent steps the great example
  10. Of Him whose holy work was "doing good;"
  11. So shall the wide earth seem our Father's temple,
  12. Each loving life a psalm of gratitude.
