- 1One sole baptismal sign,
- One Lord, below, above,
- Zion, one faith is thine,
- One only watchword, love.
- From different temples though it rise,
- One song ascendeth to the skies.
- 2Our Sacrifice is one;
- One Priest before the throne,
- The slain, the risen Son,
- Redeemer, Lord alone.
- Thou, Who didst raise Him from the dead,
- Unite Thy people in their Head!
- 3O may that holy prayer,
- His tenderest and His last,
- His constant, latest care,
- Ere to His throne He passed,
- No longer unfulfilled remain,
- The world’s offense, His people’s stain!
- 4Head of Thy Church beneath,
- The catholic, the true,
- On all her members breathe,
- Her broken frame renew!
- Then shall Thy perfect will be done
- When Christians love and live as one.
- 5Amen.
