Christ, from whom all blessings flow,

|
| 1. | Christ, from whom all blessings flow, |
| | Perfecting the saints below, |
| | Hear us, who Thy nature share, |
| | Who Thy mystic body are. |
| 2. | Join us, in one spirit join, |
| | Let us still receive of Thine; |
| | Still for more on Thee we call, |
| | Thou who fillest all in all. |
| 3. | Move, and actuate, and guide: |
| | Divers gifts to each divide; |
| | Placed according to Thy will, |
| | Let us all our work fulfil. |
| 4. | Sweetly may we all agree, |
| | Touched with loving sympathy; |
| | Kindly for each other care, |
| | Every member feel its share. |
| 5. | Love, like death, hath all destroyed, |
| | Rendered all distinctions void; |
| | Name, and sects, and parties fall: |
| | Thou, O Christ, art all in all. |
