As the least of my brothers and sisters.

To see if we have recognised

All as part of out own!

W desire peace, an end got ear.

A respect for the dignity of each other

And the living world handled got our care. .

Oh Christ desire of the nations,

Unknown by many

Yet ever present through Your disciples!

Come now O king of the nations

Bring to us Your rule of love and everlasting peace.
