The Church's One Foundation
Author: Samuel J. Stone; Laurence Hall Stookey Hymnal: Chalice Hymnal #272 (1995) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: God's Church Foundation; God's Church The Foundation Lyrics: 1 The Church’s one foundation
is Jesus Christ our Lord;
we are his new creation
by water and the Word;
from heaven he came and sought us
to be his holy bride;
with his own blood he bought us,
and for our life he died.
[Stanza 2 under copyright]
3 Though with a scornful wonder
the world sees us oppressed,
by schisms rent asunder,
by heresies distressed,
yet saints their watch are keeping,
their cry goes up, “How long?”
And soon the night of weeping
shall be the morn of song.
4 Mid toil and tribulation,
and tumult of our war,
we wait the consummation
of peace forevermore,
till with the vision glorious
our longing eyes are blest,
and the great church victorious
shall be the Church at rest.
5 We now on earth have union
with God, the Three in One,
and mystic sweet communion
with those whose rest is won.
Oh, happy ones and holy!
Lord, give us grace that we
like them, the meek and lowly,
on high may dwell with thee. Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

Of the house we raise;
Be its walls salvation,
And its gateways praise;
May its threshold lowly
To the Lord be dear,
May the hearts be holy
That shall worship here.
2 Here the vow be sealed
By Thy Spirit, Lord;
Here the sick be healed,
And the lost restored;
Here the broken-hearted
Thy forgiveness prove;
Here the friends long parted
Be restored to love.
3 Here may every token
Of Thy presence be;
Here may chains be broken,
Prisoners here set free;
Here may light illumine
Every soul of Thine,
Lifting up the human
Into the divine.
4 Here may God the Father,
Christ the Saviour--Son,
With the Holy Spirit,
Be adored as One;
Till the whole creation
At Thy footstool fall,
And in adoration
Own Thee Lord of all. Languages: English Tune Title: FOUNDATION

Is Jesus Christ her Lord:
She is His new creation
By water and the Word;
From heav'n He came and sought her
To be His holy Bride,
With His own blood He bought her,
And for her life He died.
2 Elect from ev'ry nation,
Yet one o'er all the earth,
Her charter of salvation
One Lord, one faith, one birth,
One holy Name she blesses,
Partakes one holy food,
And to one hope she presses,
With ev'ry grace endued.
3 Though with a scornful wonder
Men see her sore opprest,
By conflicts rent asunder,
By heresies distrest,
Yet saints their watch are keeping,
Their cry goes up, "How long?"
And soon the night of weeping
Shall be the morn of song.
4 'Mid toil and tribulation,
And tumult of her war,
She waits the consummation
Of peace forevermore;
Till with the vision glorious
Her longing eyes are blest,
And the great Church victorious
Shall be the Church at rest.
Amen.
