1 In Christ there is no east or west,
In him no south or north,
But one great fellowship of love
Throughout the whole wide earth.
2 In him shall true hearts ev'rywhere
Their high communion find;
His service is the golden cord
Close-binding all mankind.
3 Join hands then, brothers of the faith,
Whate'er your race may be.
Who serves my Father as a son
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
Throughout the whole wide earth.
