The Church's one foundation

Hymnal: Voices of Praise #105 (1883) Topics: The Church Her Ordinances and Offices 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 Though with a scornful wonder Men see her sore opprest, By schisms rent asunder, By heresies distrest; Yet saints their watch are keeping, Their cry goes up, "How long?" And soon the night of weeping Shall be the morn of song. 4 '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. 5 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. Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

Pleasant are Thy courts above

Hymnal: Voices of Praise #106 (1883) Topics: The Church Her Ordinances and Offices Lyrics: 1 Pleasant are Thy courts above, In the land of light and love; Pleasant are Thy courts below, In this land of sin and woe. O, my spirit longs and faints For the converse of Thy saints, For the brightness of Thy face, King of Glory, God of grace! 2 Happy birds that sing and fly Round Thy altars, O Most High! Happier souls, that find a rest, In a Heavenly Father's breast! Like the wandering dove, that found No repose on earth around, They can to their ark repair, And enjoy it ever there. 3 Happy souls! their praises flow, Ever in this vale of woe; Waters in the desert rise, Manna feeds them from the skies; On they go from strength to strength, Till they reach Thy throne at length; At Thy feet adoring fall, Who hast led them safe through all. 4 Lord, be mine this prize to win; Guide me through a world of sin, Keep me by Thy saving grace, Give me at Thy side a place; Sun and shield alike Thou art, Guide and guard my erring heart; Grace and glory flow from Thee, Shower, O shower them, Lord, on me. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: MAIDSTONE

Saviour, who Thy flock art feeding

Hymnal: Voices of Praise #108 (1883) Topics: The Church Her Ordinances and Offices Lyrics: 1 Saviour, who Thy flock art feeding, With the shepherd's kindest care, All the feeble gently leading, While the lambs Thy bosom share; 2 Now these little ones receiving, Fold them in Thy gracious arm; There, we know, Thy word believing, Only there secure from harm. 3 Never from Thy pasture roving, Let them be the lion's prey; Let Thy tenderness, so loving, Keep them all life's dangerous way; 4 Then, within Thy fold eternal, Let them find a resting-place; Feed in pastures ever vernal, Drink the rivers of Thy grace. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: BROCKLESBURY

Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: S. STEPHEN
