| 1. | One new man is the Father's plan; |
| | He redeemed us from the sons of men. |
| | Every kindred, tribe and tongue, |
| | In Himself He called us to be one. |
| | God's expression on the earth |
| | Now reveals His glorious worth. |
| | One new man is the Father's plan; |
| | He redeemed us from the sons of men. |
| 2. | On the cross ordinances slain, |
| | That He might form just one of twain. |
| | Reconciling us to God, |
| | Thus on the serpent's head He trod. |
| | He breaks down the middle wall |
| | As upon His name we call; |
| | On the cross ordinances slain, |
| | That He might form just one of twain. |
| 3. | For this cause Your Person, Lord, |
| | We take and stand in one accord; |
| | All the members self forsake, |
| | And of the Body-Christ partake. |
| | We in Christ as one new man |
| | Now come forth to take this land. |
| | For this cause Your Person, Lord, |
| | We take and stand in one accord. |
