100 Hymns for Today #43

1. In Christ there is no east or west,
In him no south or north,
But one great fellowship of love
Thru'out the whole wide Earth.
2. In him shall true hearts ev'rywhere
Their high communion find.
His service is the golden cord
Close binding humankind
3. Join hands, then, children of the faith,
Whate'er your race may be!
Who serves my Father as a child
Is surely kin to me.
4. In Christ now meet both east and west,
In him meet south and north;
All Christly souls are one in him,
Thru'out the whole wide Earth.
