Author: Chandler Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #294 (1894) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Christ is our corner-stone,
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 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.
3 Here, gracious God, do Thou
For evermore draw nigh;
Accept each faithful vow,
And mark each suppliant sigh;
In copious shower on all who pray,
Each holy day, Thy blessings pour.
4 Here may we gain from heaven
The grace which we implore;
And may that grace, once given,
Be with us evermore;
Until that day when all the blest
To endless rest are called away.
Amen. Topics: Laying of a Corner-Stone Languages: English Tune Title: [Christ is our corner-stone]
