Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
Christ is our cornerstone,
On Him alone we build;
With His true saints alone
The courts of heav'n are filled:
On His great love
Our hopes we place
Of present grace
And joys above.
VERSE 2
O then with hymns of praise
These hallowed courts shall ring;
Our voices we will raise
The Three in One to sing;
And thus proclaim
In joyful song,
Both loud and long,
That glorious name.
VERSE 3
Here, gracious God, do thou
For evermore draw nigh;
Accept each faithful vow,
And mark each suppliant sigh;
In copious show'r
On all who pray
Each holy day
Thy blessings pour.
VERSE 4
Here may we gain from heaven
The grace which we implore;
And may that grace once giv'n,
Be with us evermore,
Until that day
When all the blest
To endless rest
Are called away.
