2. Il y a un pain, symbole <strong>de</strong> Ton Corps,<br />
Il fut brisé, à Tes saints fut donné.<br />
Nous proclamons, en prenant part au pain,<br />
Que nous somm’s un, un avec tous les saints !<br />
3. Christ a payé le prix pour nous rach’ter<br />
Afin que nous formions tous un seul Corps.<br />
Le pain, le vin, ne nous laissent aucun choix:<br />
Ils montrent que nous <strong>de</strong>vons tous être un.<br />
4. Nous somm’s tous un et l’enn’mi est vaincu;<br />
Notre unité, c’est Christ, et Christ seul’ment !<br />
Glorieux <strong>em</strong>blème: un’ coupe et un seul pain<br />
Proclament au mond’ cette unité bénie.<br />
5. Oh, quelle gloire, l’Esprit témoigne en nous<br />
Que Tu es, Seigneur, enfin satisfait !<br />
Quel avant-goût, cette unité précieus’,<br />
Glorieux époux, Ton égliseT’attend !<br />

1. We’re ga<strong>the</strong>red here, O Lord, as Thy one Body:<br />
Though we be many, yet we all are one.<br />
We share Thy life and own that we are m<strong>em</strong>bers,<br />
And thus within, in life we all are one.<br />
There is one Body in this universe,<br />
And we express it here on earth;<br />
We stand as one in each locality<br />
<strong>For</strong> all to see, for all to see.<br />
2. There is one loaf, <strong>the</strong> symbol of Thy body:<br />
‘Twas broken so that all <strong>the</strong> saints may share.<br />
We eat this bread and, as we are partaking,<br />
Our actual oneness with all saints <strong>de</strong>clare.<br />
3. One bread, one cup are now upon <strong>the</strong> table,<br />
Showing that we can be naught else but one.<br />
Christ has re<strong>de</strong><strong>em</strong>ed us, ma<strong>de</strong> us His own Body:<br />
What can we say but, “Amen, Lord, we’re one!”<br />
