I Love Your Kingdom, Lord
Author: Timothy Dwight Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #513 (1995) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Nature of the Church Lyrics: 1 I love your kingdom, Lord,
the place of your abode,
the church our blessed Redeemer saved
with his own precious blood.
2 I love your church, O God!
Her walls before you stand,
dear as the apple of your eye,
and graven on your hand.
3 For her my tears shall fall,
for her my prayers ascend,
to her my cares and toils be give'n
till toils and cares shall end.
4 Beyond my highest joy
I prize her heav'nly ways,
her sweet communion, solemn vows,
her hymns of love and praise.
5 Sure as your truth shall last,
to Zion shall be given
the brightest glories earth can yield,
and brighter bliss of heaven.

The Church of Christ
Author: Augustus Gottlieb Spangenberg; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #516 (1995) Topics: Nature of the Church First Line: The church of Christ, which he has hallowed here Lyrics: 1 The church of Christ, which he has hallowed here
to be his house, is scattered far and near
in north, and south, and east, and west abroad;
and yet in earth and heav'n, thro' Christ, her Lord,
the church is one.
2 One member may not know another here,
and yet their fellowship is true and near;
one is their Savior, and their Father one;
one Spirit rules them, and among them none
lives to one's self.
3 They live to him who bought them with his blood,
baptized them with his Spirit, pure and good;
and in true faith and ever burning love,
their hearts and hopes ascend to seek above
th'eternal good.
4 O Spirt of the Lord, all life is yours;
now on your church your pow'r and strength out-pour,
that many children may be born to you
and through your knowledge may be brought anew
to sing Christ's praise. Scripture: Romans 12 Languages: English Tune Title: FIDEI UNITAS

for evermore draw near,
accept each faithful vow,
and ev'ry suppliant hear.

the grace which we implore;
and may that grace, once giv'n,
be with us evermore,
until that day when all the blessed
to endless rest are called away! Scripture: Psalm 118:22-24 Languages: English Tune Title: DARWALL

Author: John Newton Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #522 (1995) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Nature of the Church Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of you are spoken,
Zion, city of our God;
he whose word cannot be broken,
formed you for his own abode;
on the rock of ages founded,
what can shake your sure repose?
With salvation's walls surrounded
you may smile at all your foes.
2 Blessed inhabitants of Zion,
washed in the Redeemer's blood!
Jesus, whom their souls rely on,
makes them kings and priests to God;
'tis his love his people raises
in his courts to reign as kings,
and as priests, his solemn praises
each for a thankoff'ring brings.
3 Savior, since of Zion's city
I through grace a member am,
let the world deride or pity,
I will glory in your name.
Fading are the worldling's pleasures,
all their boasted pomp and show,
solid joys and lasting treasures
none but Zion's children know. Scripture: Psalm 9:11 Languages: English Tune Title: AUSTRIAN HYMN
