And sigh­ing to know
Bear with one ano­ther,
No more di­vid­ed be, ye fa­mi­lies of men,
Be ban­ished far away:
Tho’ tro­uble bil­lows roll,
Blest is the pi­ous house
Of breth­ren who agree
His child­ren rule the land.

Shall hearts e’er sun­der, in that fair clime,
Celestial ci­ty that I love.
Longed for the love of hu­man friend,
And Christ in­vites us near;
For the gift of strength and health,
Now be for­ev­er blest.

friend­ship

Tenderly flow?
E’en when part­ed, al­ways
In the new year of God let bro­thers’ love in­crease,
Who the same Lord ob­ey.
Give com­fort to my soul.
Their songs of praise, their min­gled vows,
And bonds of char­ity;
Is ev­er with His own,
Do you walk with Him day by day,
None want­ing yon­der! Bought by the Lamb,
The God of Heav’n will steer my bark;
With Thy rich love that knows no end.
And our com­mun­ion dear.
For the pow­er to think aright,
Here’s no abid­ing home;
Here’s no abid­ing home;
Soon shall I come to life’s clos­ing scenes;
A friend when oth­ers fail,
Till Thou call me home, my God.
And learn of Christ, our Lord.
