John Wesley (1703-1791)

6 Verses Unity In Christ

Verse 1

BLEST be the dear uniting love, That will not let us part! Our bodies may far off remove, We still are one in heart.

Verse 2

Joined in one spirit to our Head, Where he appoints we go; And stili in Jesu's footsteps tread, And show his praise below.

Verse 3

O may we ever walk in him, And nothing know beside; Nothing desire, nothing esteem, But Jesus crucified.

Verse 4

Closer and closer let us cleave To his beloved embrace; Expect his fulness to receive And grace to answer grace.

Verse 5

Partakers of the Saviour's grace, The same in mind and heart, Nor joy, nor grief, nor time, nor place, Nor life, nor death can part.

Verse 6

But let us hasten to the day Which shall our flesh restore, When death shall all be done away, And bodies part no more!
