This is a short praise chorus, about unity in Christ. The words were inspired by 1 Corinthians 12.
The song was written by American Baptist contemporary-Christian-music singer and songwriter and performer Scott Wesley Brown (b 1952) and instrumental artist, songwriter, and author, David Hampton(). It was originally released in 1997 by New Spring, Integrity's Hosanna! Music
It is set to tune, also by Brown and Hampton, called BODY OF CHRIST. This has a 4/4 time signature. In the key of G, the first few notes of the melody are D G_ z D A DD AB c_ c BA GG.

Lyrics
The lyrics are copyright so cannot be reproduced here. But they are currently available on this website. A rough outline is:One heart, one spirit, one voice to praise You
We are the body of Christ.
One goal one vision, to see You exalted
We are the body of Christ
And to this we give our lives:
To see You glorified.
