Help us to help each other

1
Help us to help each other, Lord, 
each other's load to bear, 
that all may live in true accord, 
our joys and pains to share. 

2
Help us to build each other up, 
your strength within us prove. 
Increase our faith, confirm our hope, 
and fill us with your love. 

3
Together make us free indeed - 
your life within us show, 
and into you, our living Head, 
let us in all things grow. 

4
Drawn by the magnet of your love 
we find our hearts made new. 
Nearer each other let us move, 
and nearer still to you.
