The Church's One Foundation
text: Samuel Stone
Music: Brian Moss

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 every nation, Yet one over all the earth
Her charter of salvation, One Lord, one faith, one birth
One holy Name she blesses, Partakes on holy food
And to one hope she presses, With every grace endued

5. 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

6. 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,
That they will dwell, That we may dwell with Thee.
