1 Help us to help each other, Lord,
each other's cross to bear;
let each his friendly aid afford,
and feel another's care.
2 Up into thee, our living head,
let us in all things grow,
and by thy sacrifice be led
the fruits of love to show.
3 Touched by the lodestone of thy love
let all our hearts agree;
and ever towards each other move,
and ever move towards thee.
4 This is the bond of perfectness,
thy spotless charity.
O let us still, we pray, possess
the mind that was in thee.
