How blest and how joyous will be the glad day, When heart beats to heart in the work of the Lord; When Christians united shall swell the glad lay, Divisions all ended, triumphant His word!   O shout the glad word, O hasten the day, When all of God’s people are one; (God’s people are one;) When all of God’s people are one. (God’s people are one.) 1-3 Words by M. C. Kurfees / Music by Alexander C. Hopkins

The prayer of our Savior impels us move on; How Blest And How Joyous The prayer of our Savior impels us move on; Its words are still sounding the call of our King; And Paul, in devotion, doth echo the song, "I beg you, my brethren, to speak the same thing.”   O shout the glad word, O hasten the day, When all of God’s people are one; (God’s people are one;) When all of God’s people are one. (God’s people are one.) 2-3

Be faithful and true till the warfare is o'er, How Blest And How Joyous Be faithful and true till the warfare is o'er, Till factions are foiled and the vict’ry is won; And millions of voices shall blend on the shore, To welcome us enter our Father's glad home.    O shout the glad word, O hasten the day, When all of God’s people are one; (God’s people are one;) When all of God’s people are one. (God’s people are one.) 3-3
