Hark! the Church proclaims her honor

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #192 (1880) Topics: The Catechism The Church Lyrics: 1 Hark! the Church proclaims her honor, And her strength is only this: God hath laid His choice upon her, And the work she doth is His. 2 He His Church hath firmly founded, He will guard what He began; We by sin and foes surrounded, Build her bulwarks as we can. 3 Onward, then! for nought despairing, Calm we follow at His word, Thus through joy and sorrow bearing Faithful witness to our Lord. 4 Though we here must strive in weakness, Though in tears we often bend, What His might began in meekness Shall achieve a glorious end.
