Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.263 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Hymnal Title: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The First Line: Lo! what a glorious corner-stone Lyrics:
Lo! what a glorious corner-stone
The Jewish builders did refuse;
But God hath built his church thereon,
In spite of envy and the Jews.
Great God, the work is all divine,
The joy and wonder of our eyes;
This is the day that proves it thine,
The day that saw our Savior rise.
Sinners, rejoice; and saints, be glad;
Hosanna, let his name be blest;
A thousand honors on his head,
With peace, and light, and glory rest!
In God's own name he comes to bring
Salvation to our dying race;
Let the whole church address their King
With hearts of joy and songs of praise.
