They Did Not Build in Vain

Author: Alan Luff (1928-) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #302 (1998) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Lyrics: 1 They did not build in vain who founded here a church as witness to God's love amid a world of pain, for still, to those who wish to see, this place proclaims God's mystery. 2 They built upon the rock that is the risen Lord, the one foundation laid which stands each earthly shock; that, Spirit filled, we here might raise, as living temples, prayer and praise. 3 Those who have loved this place, a cloud of witnesses, surround and urge us on as we now run our race, and so we lay aside each sin in our desire to strive and win. 4 Though the horizon's bend conceals the way ahead, the footprints on the road show Christ waits at the end; in him alone our faith shall stand who waits for us at God's right hand. 5 In every place our world is storm and tempest tossed; the flames of fear and hate are evil's flags unfurled; yet still the Spirit's wind and fire pour gifts for service in this hour. 6 Here is our meeting place, where doubt finds grounds of faith; where hurt finds healing love, our penitence your grace; where bridging time to eternity is God the holy Trinity.

On your far hills, long cold and gray, has dawned the everlasting day. 4 Shores of the utmost West, ye that have waited long, unvisited, unblest, break forth to swelling song; high raise the note, that Jesus died, yet lives and reigns, the Crucified. 5 Shout, while ye journey home; songs be in every mouth; lo, from the north we come, From east and west and south. City of God, the bond are free, we come to live and reign in thee! Topics: General Hymns Church/Fellowship/Mission Languages: English Tune Title: LITTLE CORNARD
