Now let us all with one accord,
In fellowship with ages past, Keep vigil with our heav'nly Lord.
In his temptation and his fast
The covenant so long revealed
To faithful men in former time,
Christ by his own example sealed,
The Lord of love, in love sublime.
This love, O Lord, we sinful men
Have not returned, but falsified;
Author of mercy, turn again,
And see our sorrow for our pride.
Remember, Lord, though frail we be,
By your own kind hand were we made;
And help us, lest our frailty
Cause your great name to be betrayed.
Therefore we pray you, Lord, forgive;
So when our wanderings here shall cease,
We may with you for ever live,
In love and unity and peace.
Hear us, O Trinity sublime,
And undivided unity;
So let this consecrated time
Bring forth its fruit abundantly.
