Israel’s, Judah’s tribes command
To flock from every side, (Isa. 11:12)
All unite, and to the land
Of their forefathers guide: (Ezek. 37:21, Jer. 31:8, Hosea 1:11)
All thy saints bring in alone, (Matt. 24:31, John 10:16)
And let us thee alone adore,
Join’d, and perfected in one, (John 17:21-23, Eph. 1:10, Eph. 2:14-16, Eph. 4:3-6, I Jn. 1:28)
And never parted more. (Ezek. 37:22)
