lyrics

8. UNITY, NOT UNIFORMITY


(1)
We hold in love and fellowship
our brothers and sisters with whom we agree---
and, though it’s a challenge, we'll also love
and respect those with whom we disagree!

(2)
We will respect diversity,
and won't let it divide us.
We can agree to disagree
with God's grace and love to guide us.

(3)
With unity, not uniformity,
we'll seek the mind of Christ,
and pray we'll see how best to show
God's will and love in our lives.


Words © 1995 by Linda K. Williams
Tune: "Blest be the Tie that Binds" (from Hans G. Nägeli, 1773-1836)

The inspiring phrase "unity, not uniformity" came from an article in The Messenger. Thanks for the inspiration!
