John Oxenham

No East Or West

   In Christ there is no East or West,
   In Him no South or North,
   But one great Fellowship of Love
   Throughout the whole wide earth.
 
   In Him shall true hearts everywhere
   Their high communion find.
   His service is the golden cord
   Close-binding all mankind.
 
   Join hands then, Brothers of the Faith,
   Whatever your race may be!—
   Who serves my Father as a son
   Is surely kin to me.
 
   In Christ now meet both East and West,
   In Him meet South and North,
   All Christly souls are one in Him,
   Throughout the whole wide earth.
