The Church's one foundation
Author: S. J. Stone Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #78 (1913) Topics: The Church Foundation and Nature; The Church Foundation and Nature; Church of Christ; Communion of Saints Lyrics: 1 The Church’s one foundation
Is Jesus Christ her Lord;
She is His new creation
By water and the word;
From heaven 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 every 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 every grace endued.
3 Though with a scornful wonder
Men see her sore 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 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.
5 Yet she on earth hath union
With God the Three in One,
And mystic sweet communion
With those whose rest is won;
O happy ones and holy!
Lord, give us grace, that we,
Like them, the seek and lowly,
On high may dwell with Thee!

High on His mountain founded?
Sing praise to Christ, thy king divine,
Who thee with walls surrounded;
Thy children He doth bless and sends
His peace to thee, thy strife He ends:
Now praise thy God, O Zion!
2 He sendeth out His holy word
To every land and nation,
It swiftly runs, 'tis from the Lord
His message of salvation;
The hearts that were like ice and snow,
It melts so that in streams they flow
With tears of true repentance.
3 Who now but will himself deny,
And yield to God submission,
His word receive, on Christ rely,
Obtains a full remission;
He is converted and made wise,
And goest from hence to Paradise:
Grant us this grace, O Savior! Tune Title: [Thou holy Church, God's city shine]

Zion kept by power divine
All her foes shall be confounded,
Though the world in arms combine.
Happy Zion, Happy Zion,
What a favored lot is thine!
2 Every human tie may perish;
Friend to friend unfaithful prove;
Mothers cease their own to cherish;
Heaven and earth at last remove:
But no changes, But no changes
Can attend Jehovah’s love.
3 In the furnace God may prove thee,
Thence to bring thee forth more bright,
But can never cease to love thee;
Thou art precious in His sight:
God is with thee: God is with thee:
God, thine everlasting light. Tune Title: [Zion stands with hills surrounded]

My Church! My Church! My dear old Church
Author: Anon. Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #286 (1899) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Church nature of Lyrics: 1 My Church! My Church! My dear old Church
My fathers’ and my own!
On prophets, and apostles built,
And Christ the cornerstone;
All else beside, by storm or tide,
May yet be overthrown;
But not my Church, my dear old Church,
My fathers’ and my own.
2 My Church! My Church! My dear old Church!
My glory and my pride!
Firm in the faith Immanuel taught,
She holds no faith beside,
Upon this rock, ‘gainst every shock,
Though gates of hell assail,
She stands secure, with promise sure,
“They never shall prevail.”
3 My Church! My Church! My dear old Church!
I love her ancient name;
And God forbid a child of hers
Should ever do her shame;
Her mother care I'll ever share;
Her child I am alone,
Till He who gave me to her arms,
Shall call me to His own.
4 My Church! My Church! My dear old Church!
Thy child would add a vow
To that whose token once was signed
Upon his infant brow;
Her mother care I'll ever share,
Her child I am alone.
My Church shall yet be dear to me,
My fathers' and my own.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: NOEL
