397 Good and pleasant 'tis to see

1 Good and pleasant 'tis to see Brethren dwell in unity, When the law which Jesus taught, Rules each word, and deed, and thought. 2 God has promised there, we know, Blessings richly to bestow, Life on earth, with all its store, Life in heaven for evermore. 3 Sun of righteousness, arise! Shine on our benighted eyes; To Thy Church Thy light unfold, That the nations may behold. 4 Jesus! Head of Christians all! Grant that we, both great and small, Through Thy gospel's light divine, May be one and wholly Thine. 5 Bring back all that go astray, Heavenly Shepherd! to Thy way; 'Neath Thy favor and Thy light, All Thy pasture-sheep unite.
