I long for fellowship in spirit

I long for fellowship in spirit

That mingled with the saints I’ll be

Long to be saved from independence

And to be built with saints in Thee.

I long for fellowship in spirit

That opened shall my spirit be

Long to be rescued from seclusion

And with the saints to worship Thee.

I long for fellowship in spirit

Long that my spirit forth may come

Long to be saved from self-deception

And every hindrance overcome.

I long for fellowship in spirit

With saints in spirit thus to pray

Long for deliv’rance from pretention

Long for true fellowship today.

I long for fellowship in spirit

Long thus to know authority;

Long for true fellowship in service

Coordinated thus to be.

O Lord

fulfill our hearts deep longing

Saints for such fellowship inspire

That we may realize Thy building

And soon fulfill Thy heart’s desire.
