Stone Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #78 (1930) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Processionals and Recessionals General; Processionals and Recessionals Trinity 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 Her longing eyes are blest, And soon the Church victorious Shall be the Church at rest. 4 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
