The church’s one foundation

Author: Samuel John Stone, 1839-1900 Hymnal: Together in Song #457 (1999) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Dedication of Church Buildgin 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 the world sees her 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 Through toil and tribulation and tumult of her war she waits the consummation of peace for evermore, till with the vision glorious her longing eyes are blessed, and the great church victorious shall be the church at rest. 5 Yet she on earth has union with God the Three in One, and mystic sweet communion with those whose rest is won. O happy ones and holy! Lord, give to us the grace like them, the meek and lowly, in heaven to seek your face. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 3:11-15 Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

Christ, Thou art the Sure Foundation

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #492 (1870) Topics: Dedication of churches Lyrics: 1 Christ, Thou art the sure Foundation, Thou the Head and Corner-stone; Chosen of the Lord, and precious, Binding all the Church in one; Thou thy Zion's help for ever, And her confidence alone. 2 To this temple, where we call Thee, Come, O Lord of Hosts, to-day! With Thy wonted loving kindness Hear Thy servants as they pray; And Thy fullest benediction Shed within these walls alway. 3 Here vouchsafe to all Thy servants What they ask of Thee to gain, What they gain from Thee forever With the blessed to retain, And hereafter in Thy glory Evermore with Thee to reign. 4 Praise and honor to the Father, Praise and honor to the Son, Praise and honor to the Spirit, Ever Three and even One; One in might, and one in glory, While eternal ages run.
