Though the world would segregate us,
Keep us separate and alone,
He has made us now one body,
For our enmity atoned.
Though the enemy would have us
Speaking ill and boasting pride;
We will carry one another,
In humility abide.
For we are one, we are one;
In Christ no more divided, we are one!
In our hearts, so bent and broken,
He has lavished grace so free;
Given gifts that we would serve him,
And to others blessings be.
So we cast off independence,
Seek the other as our own;
Strangers now are brothers, sisters,
By the Father we are known.
For we are one, we are one;
In Christ no more divided, we are one!
Let us be no longer foolish,
No more immaturity;
Let us wholly love each other,
Growing up in unity.
We will put away all falsehood,
Every scheme that leads astray;
We will speak the truth completely
So that all might of us say:
For we are one, we are one;
In Christ no more divided, we are one!
For we are one, we are one;
(Though the world would segregate us,
Keep us separate and alone,)
In Christ no more divided, we are one!
(He has made us now one body,
For our enmity atoned.)
For we are one, we are one;
(Though the enemy would have us
Speaking ill and boasting pride)
In Christ no more divided, we are one!
(We will carry one another,
In humility abide.)
For we are one, we are one;
In Christ no more divided, we are one!
