<p>Thou, Who at Thy first Eucharist didst pray<br>
|
|
That all Thy Church might be forever one,<br>
|
|
Grant us that ev’ry Eucharist to say<br>
|
|
With longing heart and soul, “Thy will be done.”<br>
|
|
O may we all one bread, one body be,<br>
|
|
Through this blest sacrament of unity.</p>
|
|
<p>For all Thy Church, O Lord, we intercede;<br>
|
|
Make Thou our sad divisions soon to cease;<br>
|
|
Draw us the nearer each to each, we plead,<br>
|
|
By drawing all to Thee, O Prince of Peace;<br>
|
|
Thus may we all one bread, one body be,<br>
|
|
Through this blest sacrament of unity.</p>
|
|
<p>We pray Thee too for wand’rers from Thy fold;<br>
|
|
O bring them back, good Shepherd of the sheep,<br>
|
|
Back to the faith which saints believed of old,<br>
|
|
Back to the Church which still that faith doth keep;<br>
|
|
Soon may we all one bread, one body be,<br>
|
|
Through this blest sacrament of unity.</p>
|
|
<p>So, Lord, at length when sacraments shall cease,<br>
|
|
May we be one with all Thy Church above,<br>
|
|
One with Thy saints in one unbroken peace,<br>
|
|
One with Thy saints in one unbounded love;<br>
|
|
More blessèd still, in peace and love to be<br>
|
|
One with the Trinity in Unity.</p>
