No East Or West

Topics: classic

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.     In Him shall true hearts everywhere     Their high communion find.     His service is the golden cord     Close-binding all mankind.     Join hands then, Brothers of the Faith,     Whatever your race may be!--     Who serves my Father as a son     Is surely kin to me.     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.
