Christian Hearts in Love United
O DU LIEBE MEINER LIEBE-German melody
Christian Hearts, in Love United
}
Christian hearts, in love united, Seek alone in
Jesus rest;
Has He not your love excited? Then let love inspi
re each breast;
Members on our Head depending Lights reflecting H
im, our Sun, Brethren His commands attending, We
in Him, our Lord, are one.
Come then, come, O flock of Jesus, Covenant with
Him anew;
Unto Him who conquered for us, Pledge we love and
service true;
And should our love's union holy Firmly linked no
more remain, Wait ye at His footstool lowly, Til
l He draw it close again.
Grant, Lord, that with Thy direction, "Love each
other," we comply,
Aiming with unfeigned affection Thy love to exemp
lify;
Let our mutual love be glowing, Thus will all men
plainly see, That we, as on one stem growing, Li
ving branches are in Thee.
O that such may be our union, As Thine with the
Father is, And not one of our communion E'er fors
ake the path of bliss;
May our light shine forth with brightness, From T
hy light reflected, shine;
Thus the world will bear us witness, That we, Lor
d, are truly Thine.
