Lord, who the night You were betrayed did pray
That all Your Church might be forever one;
Help us at every Eucharist to say
With willing heart and soul, “Your will be done.”
That we may all one bread, one body be
Through this, Your sacrament of unity.

For all Your Church on earth, we intercede;
Lord, make our sad divisions soon to cease;
Draw us all closer, each to each, we plead,
By drawing all to You, O Prince of Peace;
So may we all one bread, one body be,
Through this blest sacrament of unity.

And hear our prayer for wanderers from Your fold;
Restore them, too, Good Shepherd of the sheep,
Back to the faith your saints confessed of old,
And to the Church still pledged that faith to keep.
Soon may we all one bread, one body be,
Through this blest sacrament of unity.

So, Lord, at length when sacraments shall cease,
May we be one with all your Church above—
One with Your saints in one unbroken peace,
One as Your bride in one unbounded love;
More blessèd still, in peace and love to be
One with the Trinity in unity.
