Put on as God’s elect,
The holy chose ones;
Compassionately select,
Humbled daughters and sons.
Bearing with each other,
Having mercy and grace;
Forgive one another,
Compassionate embrace.
Above all put on love,
Which binds it together;
Harmonious thereof,
Perfection to gather.
Let Christ’s peace rule your heart,
To be called and as one;
With one mind to impart,
Together with the Son.
Let the Word of Christ dwell,
In wisdom for teaching;
You’re willing to excel,
Wherever you’re preaching.
Singing a spiritual song,
With thankfulness in voice;
Singing it loud and strong,
Give thanks as you rejoice.
Whatever you may do,
Both in Word and in deed;
To Christ remaining true,
Planting the Gospel seed.
