pirate song

We are one in the Spirit, we are one in the Lord
We are one in the Spirit, we are one in the Lord
And we pray that our unity will one day be restored
And they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love
Yeah they'll know we are Christians by our love

We will work with each other, we will work side by side
We will work with each other, we will work side by side
And we'll guard each man's dignity and save each man's pride
And they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love
Yeah, they'll know we are Christians by our love

[Jars of Clay]

the highlighted line is the title.

i was listening to this song earlier and i wondered why i didn't notice the creativity behind the song before. it's sung the way pirates sing. so what makes it so significant? pirates sing together to synchronize their rowing. in the same way, the universal body of Christ should work as one and advance His kingdom.
