Where abideth charity and love, God is ever there.
All together one in love of Christ, our blessed Lord.
Let us sing in exultation of one accord.
Live we in holy fear and gentle love our life in God.
And give we to one another our hearts truly.
Where abideth charity and love, God is ever there.
And whenever we are come together in mind and heart
There is no fear of quarreling among us to drive apart.
Cease all angry thoughts and bitter words, all evils end.
And Christ our brother comes to live among us,
our guest and friend.
Where abideth charity and love, God is ever there.
And when we shall see the saints in heaven, our brothers, too,
There will Christ in glory shine among us, our life anew.
O joy that knows no bound or fear of ending, at love so true,
Through all the ages of eternity, world without end. Amen.
