Verse 1
In Christ there is no east or west,
in him no south or north,
but one great fellowship of love
throughout the whole wide earth.
Verse 2
In Christ shall true hearts everywhere
their high communion find;
his service is the golden cord
close-binding humankind.
Verse 3
Join hands, disciples of the faith,
whate'er your race may be.
All children of the living God
are surely kin to me.
Verse 4
In Christ now meet both east and west;
in him meet south and north.
All Christly souls are one in him
throughout the whole wide earth.
