Christ the Foundation of the Church

Appears in 197 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 2:6 First Line: Behold the sure foundation Stone Lyrics: 1 Behold the sure foundation Stone Which God in Zion lays, To build our heav'nly Hopes upon, And his eternal Praise. 2 Chosen of God, to Sinners dear, And Saints adore the Name, They trust their whole Salvation here, Nor shall they suffer Shame. 3 The foolish Builders, Scribe and Priest, Reject it with Disdain; Yet on this Rock the Church shall rest, And Envy rage in vain. 4 What though the Gates of Hell withstood, Yet must this Building rise; 'Tis Thy own Work, almighty God, And wond'rous in our Eyes.

Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing

Author: Robert Robinson Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2,319 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 2:9-10 Lyrics: 1 Come, thou Fount of every blessing, tune my heart to sing thy grace; streams of mercy, never ceasing, call for songs of loudest praise. Teach me some melodious sonnet, sung by flaming tongues above. Praise the mount– I'm fixed upon it– mount of God's redeeming love. 2 Here I find my greatest treasure; hither by thy help I've come; and I hope, by thy good pleasure, safely to arrive at home. Jesus sought me when a stranger, wandering from the fold of God; he, to rescue me from danger, bought me with his precious blood. 3 Oh, to grace how great a debtor daily I'm constrained to be! Let thy goodness, like a fetter, bind my wandering heart to thee: prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, prone to leave the God I love; here's my heart, O take and seal it; seal it for thy courts above.

Glorious Things of You Are Spoken

Author: John Newton Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,349 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 2:9-10 Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of you are spoken, Zion, city of our God. He whose word cannot be broken formed you for his own abode. On the Rock of Ages founded, what can shake your sure repose? With salvation's walls surrounded, you may smile at all your foes. 2 See, the streams of living waters, springing from eternal love, well supply your sons and daughters and all fear of want remove. Who can faint while such a river ever will their thirst assuage? Grace which, like the Lord, the giver, never fails from age to age. 3 Round each habitation hovering, see the cloud and fire appear for a glory and a covering, showing that the Lord is near. Thus deriving from their banner light by night and shade by day, safe they feed upon the manna which God gives them on their way. 4 Savior, since of Zion's city I through grace a member am, let the world deride or pity, I will glory in your name. Fading are the world's best pleasures, all its boasted pomp and show; solid joys and lasting treasures none but Zion's children know.
