658. C. M. S. F. Smith.

Christian Fellowship.

1 Planted in Christ, the living vine,

This day with one accord,

Ourselves, with humble faith and joy,

We yield to thee, O Lord.

2 Joined in one body may we be:

One inward life partake;

One be our heart; one heavenly hope

In every bosom wake.

3 In prayer, in effort, tears, and toils,

One Wisdom be our guide;

Taught by one Spirit from above,

In thee may we abide.

4 Around this feeble, trusting band

Thy sheltering pinions spread,

Nor let the storms of trial beat

Too fiercely on our head.

5 Then, when, among the saints in light,

Our joyful spirits shine,

Shall anthems of immortal praise,

O Lamb of God, be thine.
