En Krist' ne estas sud' aŭ nord'

Representative Text

1. En Krist' ne estas sud' aŭ nord',
Oriento, okcident',
Sed nur gefratoj en konkord'
Sur ĉiu kontinent'.

2. Interligiĝu ĉies kor'
En Li, la Dia Fil'.
Lin servi estu de l' homar'
La firma or-ligil'.

3. Manplektu, fratoj de la fid'
El kiu ajn naci';
Servante Patron kvazaŭ fil'
Parencas vi al mi.

4. En Krist' kuniĝas sud' kaj nord',
Oriento, okcident':
Pro Kristo iĝas unu ni
Sur ĉiu kontinent'.
