Can’t we all be united

Isn’t that just what You want?

Don’t let me be divisive

Make me patient, and patient a lot

 

Remould my heart with compassion

Cause persistence and patience and truth

To be my dominant features

Submissive and gracious as Ruth

 

Bring together all of our families

As with Ruth, You brought three to one

May we lead, submit, love and serve

As in You, when surrendered, we have done

 

We know there is change in our future

This can plainly and clearly be seen

But as for how and when and who it will be

You’ll reveal as each step becomes need

 

Cause our hearts to seek You as one people

By Your Spirit as one move ahead

In Your power and grace and provision

By one vision and purpose be lead
