The church's one foundation

Author: S. J. Stone, 1839-1900 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 885 hymnals 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 men see her sore opprest, by schisms rent asunder, by heresies distrest; 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 'Mid 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 blest, and the great church victorious shall be the church at rest. 5 Yet she on earth hath union with God the Three in One, and mystic sweet communion with those whose rest is won: O happy ones and holy! Lord, give us grace that we, like them, the meek and lowly, on high may dwell with thee.

From Greenland's Icy Mountains

Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 1,691 hymnals Lyrics: 1 From Greenland's icy mountains, From India's coral strand, Where Africa's bright fountains Roll down their golden sand, From many an ancient river, From many a palmy plain, They call us to deliver Their land from error's chain. 2 What though the fragrant breezes Blow soft o'er distant isles, Though ev'ry vista pleases, Yet sin the land defiles. In vain with lavish kindness The gifts of God are strown; The heathen in their blindness Bow down to wood and stone. 3 Can we whose souls are lighted With wisdom from on high, Can we to those benighted The lamp of life deny? Salvation! Oh, salvation! The joyful sound proclaim Till each remotest nation Has learned Messiah's name. Topics: Missions; Missions Used With Tune: MISSIONARY HYMN

How Lovely Is Your Dwelling

Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 14 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How lovely is your dwelling, O Lord of hosts, to me; my soul is longing, fainting, the courts of God to see. The beauty of your dwelling will bring me joy anew. My heart and flesh are crying, O living God, for you. 2 Beneath your care the sparrow finds place for peaceful rest; to keep her young in safety the swallow finds a nest. So, Lord, my King Almighty, your love will shelter me; beneath your wings of mercy my dwelling place will be. 3 Blest they who love and serve you, whose joy and strength you are. Forever they will praise you, your ways are in their heart. Though tried, their tears like showers shall fill the springs of peace; and all the way to Zion their strength shall still increase.

Gentle Mary Laid Her Child

Author: Joseph Simpson Cook Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 48 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Gentle Mary laid her Child lowly in a manger; there He lay, the undefiled, to the world a stranger; such a Babe in such a place, can He be the Savior? Ask the saved of all the race who have found His favor. 2 Angels sang about His birth; wise men sought and found Him; heaven’s star shone brightly forth, glory all around Him: shepherds saw the wondrous sight, heard the angels singing; all the plains were lit that night, all the hills were ringing. 3 Gentle Mary laid her Child lowly in a manger; He is still the undefiled, but no more a stranger: Son of God, of humble birth, beautiful the story; praise His name in all the earth, hail the King of glory!

Let all things, seen and unseen, Their notes of gladness blend; For Christ the Lord hath risen; Our joy that hath no end. Topics: Resurrection Used With Tune: LANCASHIRE
