Verse 1
Unite us Lord in praise
Engulf our hearts in song.
One fire of souls ablaze.
One Spirit makes us strong.
We come before Your throne
One body and one voice,
Exalting You alone,
To worship and rejoice
Chorus:
One Baptism, One mind
One banner that we raise
One Faith, One Love to bind
One Lord, One Hope, One praise
Verse 2
Unite us in this fight,
As soldiers You command.
By faith and not by sight,
One army, Lord, to stand.
Your banner makes us bold,
Dispelling fear and doubt
By unity untold
Well triumph, sing and shout
Chorus
Verse 3:
Unite us in Your field.
We plow the earth and sow,
To bring abundant yield
Lord, cause our love to grow
When faith has taken hold
Your ripened fruits appear
One crop grows many fold
And harvest time is near!
Chorus (2X):
One Baptism, One mind
One banner that we raise
One Faith, One Love to bind
One Lord, One Hope, One praise
