How sweet, how heavenly is the sight,
When those who love the Lord
In one another's peace delight,
And so fulfill His Word!
When each can feel his brother's sigh
And with him bear a part!
When sorrow flows from eye to eye,
And joy from heart to heart!
When, free from envy, scorn, and pride,
Our wishes all above,
Each can his brother's failings hide,
And show a brother's love!
Let love, in one delightful stream,
Through every bosom flow,
And union sweet, and dear esteem,
In every action glow.
Love is the golden chain that binds
The happy souls above;
And he's an heir of heaven who finds
His bosom glow with love.
