Christ Is Made the Sure Foundation
SATB (or Unison) Choir and Organ. A wonderful anthem in the English style. Not difficult at all with a great payoff!
Christ is made the sure Foundation,
And the precious Cornerstone;
Who, the two walls underlying,
Bound in each, binds both in one;
Holy Zion's Help forever,
And her Confidence alone.
All that dedicated city,
Dearly loved of God on high,
In exultant jubilation,
Pours perpetual melody,
God the One, and God the Trinal,
Singing everlastingly.
to this temple, where we call Thee,
Come, O Lord of Hosts, today!
With Thy wonted lovingkindness
Hear Thy people as they pray.
And Thy fullest benediction
Shed within its walls for ay.
Laud and honor to the Father,
Laud and honor to the Son,
Laud and honor to the Spirit,
Ever Three and ever One;
Consubstantial, co-eternal,
While unending ages run.
