One mas­ter, Christ; one sov­er­eign Lord,
Lord Je­su, grant us eyes to see
How good and plea­sant is the sight
Lord Je­sus, let Thy watch­ful care
With the sweet word of peace

Thy pal­aces be crowned.
Like Thee, to do our Fa­ther’s will,
Poor worms He blush­es not to call
They whose course on earth is o’er
How plea­sant and how good it is
Prosperity re­tain.

Jesus our Lord is nigh;
The sands are fall­ing,
Join ev­ery voice and ev­ery heart,
Soon shall the night of dark­ness cease,
To give our­selves where oth­ers need;
To dwell in blest ac­cord;
Their hearts sus­tain, their way pre­pare
Peace as a riv­er to in­crease,
That the true faith re­sides in me?
No less than breth­ren dear,
Let grace our self­ish­ness ex­pel,
Who base­ly all for­sook their Lord
They be­fore the throne who bow,
In one ano­ther’s joy de­light
Peace be in thee, I’ll say;
Fill all our hearts with love;
O God of truth and love,
And to all their wants at­tends.
And by the Love which loved them all,
Brethren whose cheer­ful hearts unite
