Where charity and love prevail

[marycatelli]

Where charity and love prevail,
There God is ever found;
Brought here together by Christ’s love,
By love are we thus bound.

With grateful joy and holy fear
His charity we learn;
Let us with heart and mind and soul
Now love him in return.

Forgive we now each other's faults
As we our faults confess;
And let us love each other well
In Christian holiness.

Let strife among us be unknown,
Let all contention cease;
Be His the glory that we seek,
Be ours His holy peace.

Let us recall that in our midst
Dwells God's begotten Son;
As members of His body joined,
We are in Him made one.
