All praise to our redeeming Lord

1
All praise to our redeeming Lord, 
who joins us by his grace, 
and bids us, each to each restored, 
together seek his face. 

2
He bids us build each other up, 
and gathered into one, 
to our high calling's glorious hope, 
we hand in hand go forth. 

3
The gift which he on one bestows, 
we all delight to prove; 
the grace through every vessel flows, 
in purest streams of love. 

4
We all partake the joy of one, 
the common peace we feel, 
a peace to worldly minds unknown, 
a joy unspeakable. 

5
The kiss of peace to each we give, 
a pledge of Christian love, 
in love, while here on earth we'll live, 
in love we'll dwell above.
