chosen of the Lord, and precious,
binding all the church in one;
holy Zion's help for ever,
and its confidence alone.
2 To this temple where we call you,
come, O Lord of Hosts, today;
with your faithful loving-kindness
hear your servants as they pray,
and your fullest benediction
shed within its walls alway.
3 Here bestow on all your servants
what they ask of you to gain;
what they gain from you for ever
with the blessèd to retain,
and hereafter in your glory
evermore with you to reign.
4 Laud and honour to the Father,
laud and honour to the Son,
laud and honour to the Spirit,
ever three and ever one,
one in mighty, and one in glory,
while unending ages run. Used With Tune: WESTMINSTER ABBEY Text Sources: Latin, 7th century
