A HYMN OF UNITY, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: We come, we come, we come
Last Line: One hope, one lord.
Subject(s): Brotherhood; Christianity


We come, we come, we come
O'er mountain, plain and sea,
Whose feet have trod the ways of God,
We come to thee,
With one accord
To sing one faith for life and death,
One hope, one Lord.

But not alone we come,
The valiant ones we boast,
The saints who pray for us today,
A glorious host;
With one accord
We cry with these from bended knees
To thee our Lord.

From clamorous strife we come,
From fearing rivalries,
To sue thy grace for all our ways,
Thy healing peace;
With one accord
From many lands we raise our hands
To thee our Lord.

One brotherhood we come,
Our glory in one Name,
One cross our sign, one love divine
Our hearts to inflame;
With one accord
We sing one faith in life and death,
One hope, one Lord.
