Christ the head and cornerstone;
Chosen of the Lord, and precious,
Binding all the Church in one;
Holy Zion's help for ever,
And our confidence alone.
2 To this temple where we call you,
Come, O Lord of hosts, today;
With your wonted loving kindness
Hear your servants as they pray,
And your fullest benediction
Shed in all its bright array.
3 Here vouchsafe to all your servants
What they ask of you to gain;
What they gain from you for ever
With the blessed to retain,
And hereafter in your glory
Evermore with you to reign.
4 Laud and honor to the Father,
Laud and honor to the Son,
Laud and honor to the Spirit,
Ever three and ever One,
One in might and One in glory,
While unending ages run.
