How sweet, how heavenly is the sight
Author: Swain Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #512 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Brotherly Love Lyrics: 1 How sweet, how heavenly is the sight,
When those who love the Lord,
In one another's peace delight,
And so fulfill his word!
2 Oh, may we feel each brother's sigh,
And with him bear a part;
May sorrows flow from eye to eye,
And joy from heart to heart.
3 Free us from envy, scorn, and pride;
Our wishes fix above;
May each his brother's failing hide,
And show a brother's love.
4 Let love, in one delightful stream,
Through every bosom flow,
And union sweet, and fond esteem,
In every action glow.
5 Love is the golden chain that binds
The happy souls above,
And he's an heir of heaven who finds
His bosom glow with love. Scripture: Psalm 133:1
How sweet, how heavenly is the sight
If we profess to love the Lord
Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #CCCI (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Brotherly Love Lyrics: 1 If we profess to love the Lord,
And not our brother too,
We do but mock his holy word,
As vain professors do.
2 Should we have wealth laid up in store,
And with a hard'ned heart,
Refuse unto the helpless poor,
To give them any part.
3 The love of God can't be possess'd,
Or yet in such abide,
Who do not feel for the distress'd,
And turn from them aside.
4 We dare not turn away our eyes
From such as need relief,
Nor yet refuse to hear their cries,
And not partake their grief.
5 We must be merciful and kind
To all the human race;
We must possess the Saviour's mind,
Would we be heirs of grace. Languages: English
If we profess to love the Lord
Psalm 133
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.305 (1806) Meter: 6.6.8.6.6.8 Topics: Brotherly love; Love brotherly First Line: How pleasant 'tis to see Lyrics:
How pleasant 'tis to see
Kindred and friends agree;
Each in their proper station move,
And each fulfil their part,
With sympathizing heart,
In all the cares of life and love!
'Tis like the ointment shed
On Aaron's sacred head,
Divinely rich, divinely sweet;
The oil through all the room
Diffused a choice perfume,
Ran through his robes, and blessed his feet.
Like fruitful showers of rain,
That water all the plain,
Descending from the neighboring hills;
Such streams of pleasure roll
Through every friendly soul,
Where love, like heav'nly dew, distils.

Lo! what an entertaining sight
Are brethren that agree!
Brethren, whose cheerful hearts unite
In bands of piety!
When streams of love from Christ the spring
Descend to every soul,
And heav'nly peace, with balmy wing,
Shades and bedews the whole;
'Tis like the oil, divinely sweet,
On Aaron's reverend head
The trickling drops perfumed his feet,
And o'er his garments spread.
'Tis pleasant as the morning dews
That fall on Zion's hill,
Where God his mildest glory shows,
And makes his grace distil.

Blest are the sons of peace,
Whose hearts and hopes are one,
Whose kind designs to serve and please
Through all their actions run.
Blest is the pious house
Where zeal and friendship meet;
Their songs of praise, their mingled vows,
Make their communion sweet.
Thus when on Aaron's head
They poured the rich perfume,
The oil through all his raiment spread,
And pleasure filled the room.
Thus on the heav'nly hills
The saints are bless'd above,
Where joy, like morning dew, distils,
And all the air is love.

How fair the Church of Christ shall stand
Author: T. Kingo Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #406 (1913) Topics: Brotherly Love Lyrics: 1 How fair the Church of Christ shall stand,
A beacon-light in all the land,
When love and faith all hearts inspire,
And all unite in one desire
To be as brothers, and agree
To live in peace and unity.
2 'Tis all in vain that you profess
The doctrines of the Church, unless
You live according to your creed,
And show your faith by word and deed.
Observe the rule: To others do
As you would have them do to you.
3 Resentment, hate, and cruel jest,
Must not be harbored in the breast
Where love and charity should dwell;
Then, think and speak of others well,
Refrain from all that causes strife
And mars a truly Christian life.
4 So let your tongue, your heart, and mind
Agree to banish every kind
Of malice, falsehood and disguise,
And here on earth a paradise
Of peace and harmony maintain,
Where concord and good-will shall reign.
5 For God observes our thoughts and deeds,
The secrets of our heart He reads;
The wicked can not be concealed,
Their evil ways shall be revealed,
He every true believer knows,
And love and grace on him bestows.
6 My soul, be therefore of good cheer,
Though sinners threaten, scoff, and sneer,
Serenely on your way proceed,
Nor worldly strife and clamor heed,
For Jesus' sake the cross you bear,
And soon with Him the crown shall wear.
7 O gracious God, wilt Thou my heart
So fashion in each secret part,
That Thou be sanctified in me,
Till Thee in heaven above I see,
Where holy, holy, holy, Lord,
We sing to Thee with sweet accord. Tune Title: [How fair the Church of Christ shall stand]

Each his brother’s burden bear,
To Thy Church a pattern give,
Showing how believers live.

By our loving mutually,
By our being one in Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: HERRNHUT
