Hark! The Church Proclaims Her Honor
Author: Samuel Preiswerk, 1779-1871; Catherine Winkworth, 1827-78 Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 17 hymnals Matching Instances: 17 Lyrics: 1 Hark! The Church proclaims her honor,
And her strength is only this:
God has laid his choice upon her,
And the work she does is his.
2 He his Church has firmly founded;
He will guard what he began.
We, by sin and foes surrounded,
Build her walls as best we can.
3 Frail and fleeting are our powers,
Short our days, our foresight dim.
We confess a choice not ours:
We were chosen first by him.
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.
5 Onward, then, without despairing!
Calm we follow at his Word,
Thus through joy and sorrow bearing
Faithful witness to our Lord. Topics: Church; Church Used With Tune: STUTTGART

And her strength is only this:

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.

Composer of "LOBT DEN HERRN" in The Cyber Hymnal In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
