We will all love one another;
Happy we sing and are glad all the day,
When we can serve one another.
Refrain:
Loving each other,
How pleasant to cherish a brother;
Serving each other,
The Savior looks on us with joy.
2 Thus will we labor, and thus will we pray,
Trying to help one another;
Driving the sorrows of others away,
Bringing sweet peace to each other. [Refrain]
3 Let us, like Jesus, be thoughtful and kind,
Striving to please one another;
Here, as in Heav’n, we will be of one mind,
Every one loving the other. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [This is the motto we all would obey] Text Sources: Notes of Victory by William A. Ogden and Edmund S. Lorenz (Chicago: Fleming H. Revell, 1885)
