181. UNITY IN LOVE

Previous
Next

​Author:  Georges Michel Mangold (1822-1894)
​Composer:  Hans Georg Nägeli (1773-1836)​

​1. O how lovely ’tis to be
    With our Lord in unity;
    And united voices raise
    Him to bring our songs of praise.
 
2. As the ointment, precious, true,
    Then from Aaron’s hair did flow,
    Scenting his whole raiment fair,
    Fragrance filling all the air!
 
3. So delightful it is here,
    When in Christ’s way we appear,
    And in unity do stand,
    All to Him look hand in hand.
 
4. As the dew from Hermon’s height
    Did descend on Zion bright,
    So flows grace and blessing free
    On the brethren’s unity.
 
5. See in faith, and hope and love
    Lies the power from above;
    But one Baptism, faith, and Lord,
    Spirit, head, in one accord.
 
6. This adorns our brotherhood,
    For God’s reign is always good;
    Brethren, look upon your way
    To your Saviour ev’ry day.
 
7. Love each one in truth sincere,
    To confess, O, do not fear
    God’s free grace in Christ, our Lord,
    Who to us gave this reward!
 
8. Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
    Three in one, so shall the host
    Of those born of God above
    Be as one in holy love.
 
9. As the water, spirit, blood,
    All unite in holy flood,
    Unto him who God’s advice
    Did accept as good and wise.
 
10. Also does this bond unite
      Heart and heart in faith and light;
      Many in one body be,
      Many souls in unity.
 
11. Just one Lord and just one Bride,
      Whose gaze does on Him abide,
      May the Spirit love inspire,
      Calling: “Come, my heart’s desire!”
 
12. Come, O Jesus, come, appear;
      Call Thy bride from far and near,
      Show Thy countenance so bright
      In eternal heaven’s light!

Special thanks to the Apostolic Christians who diligently labored to keep their rich musical heritage alive when most other denominations forsook it in the challenging battle of changing cultures.
​
Thanks be to those souls who labored to write and compose this treasure of praise, many now only known to GOD!

Above all, thanks, praise, and glory be to GOD!
