The Church's One Foundation
Author: Samuel John Stone Hymnal: Voices United #332 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Church Triumphant 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 '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 blessed,
and the great Church victorious
shall be the Church at rest.
4 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. Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

Author: Samuel J. Stone, 1839-1900 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #369 (1978) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Topics: Church Triumphant Lyrics: 1 The Church’s one foundation
Is Jesus Christ, her Lord;
She is his new creation
By water and the Word.
From heav'n 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 ev'ry 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 ev'ry grace endued.
3 Though with a scornful wonder
This world sees her oppressed,
By schisms rent asunder,
By heresies distressed,
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 Through toil and tribulation
And tumult of her war,
She waits the consummation
Of peace forevermore;
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 has union
With God, the Three in One,
And mystic sweet communion
With those whose rest is won.
O blessed heav'nly chorus!
Lord, save us by your grace,
That we, like saints before us,
May see you face to face. Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

The Day You Gave Us, God, Is Ended
Author: John Ellerton Hymnal: Voices United #437 (1996) Meter: 9.8.9.8 Topics: Church Triumphant Lyrics: 1 The day you gave us, God, is ended,
the sun is sinking in the west;
to you our morning hymns ascended,
your praise shall sanctify our rest.
2 We thank you that your church unsleeping,
while earth rolls onward into light,
through all the world a watch is keeping
and rests not now by day or night.
3 As o'er each continent and island
the dawn leads on another day,
the voice of prayer is never silent,
nor dies the strain of praise away.
4 The sun that bids us rest is waking
your church beneath the western sky,
and hour by hour fresh lips are making
your wondrous doings heard on high.
5 So be it, God! Your throne shall never,
like earth's proud empires, pass away;
your rule remains and grows forever,
until there dawns that glorious day. Languages: English Tune Title: ST CLEMENT

Church of God, Elect and Glorious
Author: James E. Seddon Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #526 (1995) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Church Triumphant Lyrics: 1 Church of God, elect and glorious,
holy nation, chosen race;
called as God's own special people,
royal priests and heirs of grace:
know the purpose of your calling,
show to all God's mighty deeds;
tell of love which knows no limits,
grace which meets all human needs.
2 God has called you out of darkness
into this most marvelous light;
bringing truth to live within you,
turning blindness into sight;
let your light so shine around you
that God's name is glorified;
and all find fresh hope and purpose
in Christ Jesus crucified.
3 Once you were an alien people,
strangers to God's heart of love;
Christ has brought you home in mercy,
citizens of heav'n above;
let his love flow out to others,
let them feel the Savior's care;
that they too may know his welcome
and his countless blessings share.
4 Church of God, elect and holy,
be the people Christ intends,
strong in faith and swift to answer
each command your master sends:
royal priests, fulfill your calling
through your sacrifice and prayer,
give your lives in joyful service,
sing his praise, his love declare. Scripture: 1 Peter 2:4-7 Languages: English Tune Title: RIPLEY

Bring us safe through Jordan
To Thy home above. [Refrain]
