In a world filled
with vi’lence and hatred,
Everywhere wars
and turmoil we see;
God’s people face
daily this struggle;
Only love will keep us free.
We need each other, brethren!
For only love will carry us through;
Let us stand by each other, brethren;
Take courage, be faithful and true.
Oh, how sad to see
some of our brethren,
As they strive for earth’s
pleasure and gold,
Become selfish
and strive with each other;
Love and kindness
has quickly grown cold.
We need each other, brethren!
For only love will carry us through;
Let us stand by each other, brethren;
Take courage, be faithful and true.
Lord, give us true warmth
and affection;
When one fails,
help us rescue his soul;
“He’s not heavy,
for he is my brother,”
Let us cry as we carry his load.
We need each other, brethren!
For only love will carry us through;
Let us stand by each other, brethren;
Take courage, be faithful and true.
Dear saints, let us vow to each other,
“I will help, I will comfort and pray;
I will stand by your side and defend you
In this battle you’re facing today.”
We need each other, brethren!
For only love will carry us through;
Let us stand by each other, brethren;
Take courage, be faithful and true.
