Once by nature we were dead in sin, In a world of utter discord; But together God has quickened us, Raised us up to sit together with the Lord. |
| Jesus is getting us together, Come and see the saints in one accord. His love is knitting us together, To the stature of the fullness of the Lord. |

Thus with all saints we can apprehend All the vast dimensions of God. Knowing Christ’s love passes all we know, We’re together filled to fullness with our God. |

Now we know the purpose of our God, Visible the mystery became: Christ, the church, together now we see, And together put the enemy to shame. |

For this cause we pray the Father God— Strengthen Thou with might our inner man; Make Yourself at home in all our hearts, Root us, ground us in Your love and for Your plan. |

In the Body we’ll be fitly framed As the many members Christ supply; Working in the measure of each part, All by growth in love the Body edify. |

Now we’re one His purpose to fulfill, As the one new man of His plan. Unto Him be glory in the church, And in Jesus Christ forevermore—Amen! |

I remember, once in our 6th grade gospel camp, this song touched the young brothers so much, that we wouldn't stop humming this song during the meeting!
