1 Christ is made the sure foundation,
Christ the Head and Corner-stone,
Chosen of the Lord, and precious,
Binding all the Church in one,
Holy Zion's help for ever,
And our confidence alone.
2 To this temple, where we call you,
Come, O Lord of Hosts, and stay;
Come with all your loving-kindness,
Hear your people as they pray;
And Thy fullest benediction
Shed within its walls today.
3 Here bestow on all your servants
What they seek from you to gain,
What they gain from you, for ever
With the blessed to retain,
And hereafter in your glory
Evermore with your to reign.
4 Praise and honor to the Father,
Praise and honor to the Son,
Praise and honor to the Spirit,
Ever Three, and ever One,
One in might, and one in glory,
While unending ages run.
