1 Let saints on earth in concert sing with those who work is done; for all the servants of our King in heaven and earth are one.
2 One family, we dwell in him, one Church, above, beneath, though now divided by the stream, the narrow stream of death.
3 One army of the living God, to his command we bow; part of the host have crossed the flood, and part are crossing now.
4 E'en now by faith we join our hands with those that went before, and greet the ever-living bands on the eternal shore.
5 Jesus, be thou our constant Guide; then, when the word is given, bid Jordan's narrow stream divide, and bring us safe to heaven.
