248. Brotherly Love

1 Jesus, Lord, we look to thee;
Let us in thy name agree;
Show thyself the Prince of Peace;
Bid all jars for ever cease.

2 By thy reconciling love,
Every stumbling-block remove;
Each to each unite, endear;
Come and spread thy banner here.

3 Make us of one heart and mind,
Courteous, pitiful, and kind;
Lowly, meek, in thought and word,
Altogether like our Lord.

4 Let us each for other care;
Each another’s burdens bear;
To thy church the pattern give;
Show how true believers live.

5 Let us then with joy remove
To thy family above;
On the wings of angels fly;
Show how true believers die.
