Lyrics:

Ecce quam bonum et quam jucundum habitare fratres in unum. Behold, how good and how pleasant it is, when friends live  together in unity.  Such unity is fragrant as the precious oil poured out upon the head and falling down over the head of Aaron, down to the collar of his robes. Such unity is plentiful as the dew of Mount Hermon, descending upon the hills of Zion. For there the Lord bestows his blessing, and life forevermore.
