The Church's One Foundation
Author: Samuel John Stone Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #511 (1995) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Scripture: Luke 20:17 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 'Mid toil and tribulation,
and tumult of her war,
she waits the consummation
of peace forevermore;
till with the vision glorious
longing eyes are blessed,
and the great church victorious
shall be the church at rest.
4 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. Topics: Nature of the Church; Church--Anniversary; Church--Foundation and nature; Church--Militant; Church--Triumphant; Church--Unity Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

great David's greater son!
Hail, in the time appointed,
his reign on earth begun!
He comes to break oppression,
to set the captive free;
to take away transgression,
and rule in equity.
2 He comes with succour speedy
to those who suffer wrong;
to help the poor and needy,
and bid the weak be strong;
to give them songs for sighing,
their darkness turn to light,
whose souls, condemned and dying,
were precious in his sight.
3 He shall come down like showers
upon the fruitful earth,
and love, joy, hope, like flowers,
spring in his path to birth:
before him on the mountains
shall peace the herald go;
and righteousness in fountains
from hill to valley flow.
4 Kings shall bow down before him,
and gold and incense bring;
all nations shall adore him,
his praise all people sing:
to him shall prayer unceasing
and daily vows ascend;
his kingdom still increasing,
a kingdom without end.
5 O'er ev'ry foe victorious,
he on his throne shall rest,
from age to age more glorious,
all-blessing and all-blest;
the tide of time shall never
his covenant remove;
his name shall stand for ever,
that name to us is love. Topics: Advent; Ascensiontide; Epiphany; Joy, Praise and Thanksgiving; Year A Advent 2; Year A Proper 25; Year B Advent 3; Year C Bible Sunday; Year C Epiphany 3; Years A, B, and C Epiphany Languages: English Tune Title: CRÜGER

Hail to the Lord’s anointed
Come, You Faithful, Raise the Strain
Author: John of Damascus,; John Mason Neale Hymnal: Glory to God #234 (2013) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Scripture: Luke 20:27-38 First Line: Come, you faithful raise the strain Lyrics: 1 Come, you faithful, raise the strain
of triumphant gladness!
God has brought forth Israel
into joy from sadness,
loosed from Pharaoh’s bitter yoke
Jacob’s sons and daughters;
led them with unmoistened foot
through the Red Sea waters.
2 ’Tis the spring of souls today:
Christ has burst his prison,
and from three days’ sleep in death
as a sun has risen.
All the winter of our sins,
long and dark, is flying
from the Light, to whom we give
laud and praise undying.
3 Now the queen of seasons, bright
with the day of splendor,
with the royal feast of feasts
comes its joy to render;
comes to glad Jerusalem,
who with true affection
welcomes in unwearied strains
Jesus’ resurrection!
4 Neither could the gates of death,
nor the tomb’s dark portal,
nor the watchers, nor the seal
hold you as a mortal:
but today, among your own,
you appear, bestowing
your deep peace, which evermore
passes human knowing.

Christ Is Our Cornerstone
Author: John Chandler Hymnal: Voices Together #4 (2020) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Scripture: Luke 20:17-18 Lyrics: 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.
2 Oh, then with hymns of praise
these hallow’d 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.
3 Here may we gain from heav’n
the grace which we implore,
and may that grace, once giv’n,
be with us evermore,
until that day when all the bless’d
to endless rest are called away!
4 Praise to the God of heav’n;
sing praise to Christ the Son;
the Spirit, praise be giv’n,
who joins them both as one:
the holy Dove, who gives us grace
to find our place in God’s great love! Topics: Confessing Faith; Death and Eternal Life; Heaven; Heritage Before 1500; Jesus Christ Images and Names of; Praise; Worship Tune Title: DARWALL’S 148th
