The Church's one Foundation
Author: Rev. Samuel J. Stone Hymnal: The Hymnal #333 (1950) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Dedication Services Of a Church 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 forevermore;
Till with the vision glorious,
Her longing eyes are blest,
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.
Amen. Tune Title: AURELIA
The Church's one Foundation
Christ is made the sure Foundation
Author: Rev. John M. Neale; Anon. Hymnal: The Hymnal #336 (1950) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Topics: Dedication Services Of a Church Lyrics: 1 Christ is made the sure Foundation,
Christ the Head and Cornerstone,
Chosen of the Lord and precious,
Binding all the Church in one;
Holy Zion's help forever,
And her confidence alone.
2 To this temple, where we call Thee,
Come, O Lord of Hosts, today:
With Thy wonted loving-kindness
Hear Thy people as they pray;
And Thy fullest benediction
Shed within its walls alway.
3 Here vouchsafe to all Thy servants
What they ask of Thee to gain,
What they gain from Thee forever
With the blessed to retain,
And hereafter in Thy glory
Evermore with Thee to reign.
4 Laud and honor to the Father,
Laud and honor to the Son,
Laud and honor to the Spirit,
Ever Three and ever One,
One in might, and One in glory,
While unending ages run!
Amen. Tune Title: REGENT SQUARE

How glorious Zion's courts appear
Author: Rev. Isaac Watts (1674-1748) Hymnal: The Hymnal #340 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Dedication Services Of a Church Lyrics: 1 How glorious Zion’s courts appear,
The city of our God!
His throne He hath established here,
Here fixed His loved abode.
2 Its wall, defended by His grace
No power shall e’er o’erthrow,
Salvation is its bulwark sure
Against th’ assailing foe.
3 Lift up the everlasting gates,
The doors wide open fling!
Enter, ye nations, who obey
The statutes of our King.
4 Trust in the Lord, forever trust,
And banish all your fears;
Strength In the Lord Jehovah dwells
Eternal as His years.
Amen. Tune Title: IRISH
How glorious Zion's courts appear
Rise, crowned with light, imperial Salem, rise!
Author: Alexander Pope Hymnal: The Hymnal #346 (1950) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Dedication Services Of a Church Lyrics: 1 Rise, crowned with light, imperial Salem, rise!
Exalt thy towering head and lift thine eyes!
See heaven its sparkling portals wide display,
And break upon thee in a flood of day!
2 See a long race thy spacious courts adorn:
See future sons, and daughters yet unborn,
In crowding ranks on every side arise
Demanding life, impatient for the skies.
3 The seas shall waste, the skies in smoke decay,
Rocks fall to dust, and mountains melt away;
But fixed His Word, His saving power remains;
Thy realm shall last, thine own Messiah reigns!
Amen. Tune Title: RUSSIAN HYMN
Rise, crowned with light, imperial Salem, rise!

Built on the Rock
Author: Carl Doving; Nikolai F. S. Grundtvig Hymnal: The Hymnbook #432 (1955) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Dedication Services Of a Church First Line: Built on the Rock the Church doth stand Lyrics: 1 Built on the Rock the Church doth stand,
Even when steeples are falling;
Crumbled have spires in every land,
Bells still are chiming and calling;
Calling the young and old to rest,
But above all the soul distressed,
Longing for rest everlasting.
2 Surely in temples made with hands,
God, the Most High, is not dwelling,
High above earth His temple stands,
All earthly temples excelling;
Yet He whom heavens cannot contain
Chose to abide on earth with men,
Built in our bodies His temple.
3 We are God's house of living stones,
Builded for His habitation;
He through baptismal grace us owns,
Heirs of His wondrous salvation;
Were we but two His name to tell,
Yet He would deign with us to dwell,
With all His grace and His favor.
4 Now we may gather with our King;
E'en in the lowliest dwelling;
Praises to Him we there may bring,
His wondrous mercy forth-telling;
Jesus His grace to us accords,
Spirit and life are all His words,
His truth doth hollow the temple.
5 Still we our earthly temples rear,
That we may herald His praises;
They are the homes where He draws near
And little children embraces,
Beautiful things in them are said,
God there with us His covenant made,
Making us heirs of His Kingdom.
Amen. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 6:19 Tune Title: BUILT ON THE ROCK

Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken
Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Hymnbook #434 (1955) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Dedication Services Of a Church Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of thee are spoken,
Zion, city of our God;
He whose word cannot be broken
Formed thee for His own abode:
On the Rock of Ages founded,
What can shake thy sure repose?
With salvation's walls surrounded,
Thou mayst smile at all thy foes.
2 See, the streams of living waters,
Springing from eternal Love,
Well supply thy sons and daughters,
And all fear of want remove:
Who can faint, while such a river
Ever flows their thirst to assuage;
Grace, which, like the Lord the Giver,
Never fails from age to age?
3 Round each habitation hovering,
See the cloud and fire appear
For a glory and a covering,
Showing that the Lord is near:
Thus deriving from their banner
Light by night and shade by day,
Safe they feed upon the manna
Which He gives them when they pray.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 87:3 Tune Title: AUSTRIAN HYMN
Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken
I Love Thy Kingdom, Lord
Author: Timothy Dwight Hymnal: The Hymnbook #435 (1955) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Dedication Services Of a Church Lyrics: 1 I love Thy Kingdom, Lord,
The house of Thine abode,
The Church our blest Redeemer saved
With His own precious blood.
2 I love Thy Church, O God:
Her walls before Thee stand,
Dear as the apple of Thine eye,
And graven on Thy hand.
3 For her my tears shall fall,
For her my prayers ascend;
To her my cares and toils be given,
Till toils and cares shall end.
4 Beyond my highest joy
I prize her heavenly ways,
Her sweet communion, solemn vows,
Her hymns of love and praise.
5 Sure as Thy truth shall last,
To Zion shall be given
The brightest glories earth can yield,
And brighter bliss of heaven.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 137:5-6 Tune Title: ST. THOMAS
I Love Thy Kingdom, Lord
