This stone to Thee in faith we lay

This stone to Thee in faith we lay
Zion stands with hills surrounded
Author: T. Kelly Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.4.7 Appears in 410 hymnals Topics: The Church Foundation and Nature Lyrics: 1 Zion stands with hills surrounded;
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. Used With Tune: [Zion stands with hills surrounded]

Let me view His constant smile;
Then throughout my pilgrim journey
Light will cheer me all the while. [Chorus]

Till with clearer, brighter vision,
Face to face my Lord I see. [Chorus]

Appears in 599 hymnals Topics: Christ the church's foundation; Christ the church's foundation First Line: This is the day the Lord hath made Lyrics: 1 This is the day the Lord hath made,
He calls the hours his own;
Let heaven rejoice, let earth be glad,
And praise surround the throne.
2 To day he rose and left the dead;
And Satan's empire fell;
To day the saints his triumphs spread,
And all his wonders tell.
3 Hosannah to th' anointed king,
To David's holy son,
Help us, O Lord; descend and bring
Salvation from thy throne.
4 Blest be the Lord, who comes to men
With messages of grace;
Who comes in God his father's name
To save our sinful race.
5 Hosannah in the highest strains
The church on earth can raise;
The highest heavens, in which he reigns,
Shall give him nobler praise. Scripture: Psalm 118:24-26

O Zion, tune thy voice
Author: Doddridge Appears in 146 hymnals Topics: The Church Her Foundation and Nature Lyrics: 1 O Zion, tune thy voice,
And raise thy hands on high;
Tell all the earth thy joys,
And boast salvation nigh.
Cheerful in God,
Arise and shine,
While rays divine
Stream all abroad.
2 He gilds thy mourning face
With beams that cannot fade;
His all-resplendent grace
He pours around thy head.
The nations round
Thy form shall view,
With luster new
Divinely crowned.
3 In honor to His Name
Reflect that sacred light,
And loud that grace proclaim
Which makes thy darkness bright.
Pursue His praise,
Till sovereign Love
In worlds above
Thy glory raise.
4 There, on His holy hill,
A brighter Sun shall rise,
And with His radiance fill
Those fairer, purer skies;
While round His throne,
Ten thousand stars
In nobler spheres
His influence own. Used With Tune: HANDEL'S 148TH PSALM
O Zion, tune thy voice
Forerunner and Foundation of our Hope
Author: Dr. Doddridge Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 22 hymnals Topics: Characters and Representations of Christ Forerunner and Foundation of our Hope; Christ Foundation First Line: Jesus the Lord, our souls adore Lyrics: 1 Jesus the Lord, our souls adore,
A painful sufferer now no more;
High on his Father's throne he reigns
O'er earth, and Heavens' extensive plains.
2 His race for ever is complete;
For ever undisturb'd, his seat;
Myriads of angels round him fly,
And sing his well-gain'd victory.
3 Yet 'midst the honors of his throne,
He joys not for himself alone;
His meanest servants share their part,
Share in that royal tender heart.
4 Raise, raise, my soul, thy raptur'd sight,
With sacred wonder and delight;
Jesus thy own forerunner see
Enter'd beyond the veil for thee.
5 Loud let the howling tempest yell,
And foaming waves to mountains swell,
No shipwreck can my vessel fear,
Since hope hath fix'd its anchor here.
Scripture: Hebrews 6:19-20
