Author: J. E. Seddon (1915-1983) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #497a (1987) Lyrics: 1 How good a thing it is,
how pleasant to behold,
when all God's people live at one,
the law of love uphold!
2 As perfume, by its scent,
breathes fragrance all around,
so life itself will sweeter be
where unity is found.
3 And like refreshing dew
that falls upon the hills,
true union sheds its gentle grace,
and deeper love instils.
4 God grants his choicest gifts
to those who live in peace;
to them his blessings shall abound
and evermore increase. Topics: God's Church Unity and Growth; Pentecost 2 The Church's Unity and Fellowship; Pentecost 2 The Church's Unity and Fellowship Scripture: Psalm 133 Languages: English Tune Title: STEEPLE ASHTON
