And win with them the victor's crown of gold. [Refrain]

Yet all are one within your great design. [Refrain]

Steals on the ear the distant triumph song,
And hearts are brave again, and arms are strong. [Refrain]

Through gates of pearl streams in the countless host,
Singing to Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, [Refrain]

Elijah's mantle o'er Elisha cast;
Each age its solemn task may claim but once;
Make each one nobler, stronger than the last.

To your divinest speech; their hearts awake
To human need; their lips make eloquent
To gird the right and every evil break.
3 Anoint them priests! Strong intercessors they
For pardon, and for charity and peace!
O that with them might pass the world, astray,
Into the dear Christ's life of sacrifice!
4 Make them apostles! Heralds of the cross;
Forth may they go to tell all realms your grace;
Inspired of God, may they count all but loss,
And stand at last with joy before your face.
Amen. Scripture: Acts 3:25 Tune Title: TOULON

While in essence only One;
Undivided God we claim you,
And adoring bend the knee
While we own the mystery.
