The Church Has One FOundation

Author: Samuel J. Stone (1839-1900) Hymnal: Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal #348 (1985) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Christian Church Community in Christ First Line: The church has one foundation, 'Tis Jesus Christ her Lord 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 we 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.

God in his earthly temple lays

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #482 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christian church made of Jews and Gentiles Lyrics: God in his earthly temple lays Foundations for his heav'nly praise: He likes the tents of Jacob well, But still in Zion loves to dwell. His mercy visits every house That pay their night and morning vows; But makes a more delightful stay Where churches meet to praise and pray. What glories were described of old! What wonders are of Zion told! Thou city of our God below, Thy fame shall Tyre and Egypt know. Egypt and Tyre, and Greek and Jew, Shall there begin their lives anew; Angels and men shall join to sing The hill where living waters spring. When God makes up his last account Of natives in his holy mount, 'Twill be an honor to appear As one new-born or nourished there! Scripture: Psalm 87 Languages: English

One holy church of God appears

Author: S. Longfellow Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #490 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Church Constitution Lyrics: 1 One holy church of God appears Through every age and race, Unwafted by the lapse of years, Unchanged by changing place. 2 From oldest time, on furthest shores, Beneath the pine or palm, One unseen Presence she adores, With silence or with psalm. 3 Her priests are all God's faithful sons, To serve the world raised up; The pure in heart her baptized ones, Love her communion cup. 4 The truth is her prophetic gift, The soul her sacred page; And feet on mercy's errands swift Do make her pilgrimage. 5 O living church, thine errand speed; Fulfill thy task sublime; With bread of life earth's hunger feed; Redeem the evil time.

Many centuries have fled

Author: Conder Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #492 (1873) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: The Christian Church The Lord's Supper Lyrics: 1 Many centuries have fled Since our Saviour broke the bread, And this sacred feast ordained, Ever by his church retained: Those his body who discern, Thus shall meet till his return. 2 Through the church's long eclipse, When, from priest or pastor's lips, Truth divine was never heard-- 'Mid the famine of the word, Still these symbols witness gave To his love who died to save. 3 All who bear the Saviour's name, Here their common faith proclaim; Though diverse in tongue and rite, Here, one body we unite; Breaking thus one mystic bread, Members of one common bread. 4 Come, the blessed emblems share, Which the Saviour's death declare; Come, on truth immortal feed; For his flesh is meat indeed: Saviour! witness with the sign, That our ransomed souls are thine.

Let saints below in concert sing

Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #508 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Church Fellowship Lyrics: 1 Let saints below in concert sing With those to glory gone; For all the servants of our King In earth and heaven are one. 2 One family--we dwell with him-- One church above, beneath, Though now divided by the stream, The narrow stream of death: 3 One army of the living God, To his command we bow; Part of the host have crossed the flood, And part are crossing now. 4 E'en now to their eternal home Some happy spirits fly; And we are to the margin come, And soon expect to die. 5 E'en now, by faith, we join our hands With those that went before, And greet the ransomed blessed bands Upon th' eternal shore. 6 Lord Jesus! be our constant guide; And, when the word is given, Bid death's cold flood its waves divide, And land us safe in heaven. Scripture: Isaiah 52:8
