Hymn 692
Brethren let us walk together
Meter: 8.7.8.7.D
Scripture: 1 John. 4:21
Brethren let us walk together
In love and the peace of God
Ought we to begin to question
Whether we should cease all strife?
In communion, sweet communion
Will our love and joy increase.
mpAs we make our journey homeward
Let us help ourselves along
Our foes encircle us around
Snares are laid out on our way
Our duty is, our duty is
To bear each other’s burden.
When we think of what God has done
In forgiving o’er and o'er
Brethren, ought we not to learn that
Striving should be set aside
Let us avoid, let us avoid
All the anger and the strife.
Let us seek our brother’s honour
More than we would seek our own
Let us leave all spite and
And our hearts be filled with love
Twill be sweeter, 'twill be sweeter
If we’re in oneness on earth.
