the deserts bloom and spring,
the hills leap up in gladness,
the valleys laugh and sing.

all things with large increase;
he crowns the year with blessing,
with plenty and with peace.

the gifts his goodness gave,
the golden sheaves of harvest,
the souls Christ died to save.
Your hearts lay down before him
when at his feet you fall,
and with your lives adore him
who gave his life for all.

each proud division ends.
The love that made us, makes us one,

is in such friendship better known,
alive among us here,
alive among us here.

we'll go with joy, to give the world
the love that makes us one,
the love that makes us one.
