The Church's One Foundation
Author: Samuel J. Stone Hymnal: Celebrating Grace Hymnal #246 (2010) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Church as Community Identity First Line: The church's one foundation Lyrics: 1 The church’s one foundation is Jesus Christ, her Lord;
she is His new creation by water and the Word;
from heaven 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 every 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 every grace endued.
3 Though with a scornful wonder we see her oppressed,
by schisms rent asunder, by heresies distressed;
yet saints their watch are keeping, their cry goes up, “How long?”
and soon the night of weeping shall be the morn of song.
4 '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 Christ's great church victorious shall be the church at rest.
5 Yet she on earth has 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. Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

Onward, Christian Soldiers

marching as to war,
with the cross of Jesus
going on before!
Christ, the royal Master,
leads against the foe;
forward into battle,
see His banner go!

Onward, Christian soldiers,
marching as to war,
with the cross of Jesus
going on before!
2 At the sign of triumph
Satan's host doth flee;
on, then, Christian soldiers,
on to victory!
Hell's foundations quiver
at the shout of praise;
Christians, lift your voices,
loud your anthems raise! [Refrain]
3 Like a mighty army
moves the church of God;
Christians, we are treading
where the saints have trod;
we are not divided;
all one body we,
one in hope and doctrine,
one in charity. [Refrain]
4 Onward, then, ye people,
join our happy throng,
blend with ours your voices
in the triumph song;
glory, laud, and honor
unto Christ the King;
this through countless ages
earth and angels sing. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: ST. GERTRUDE
Onward, Christian Soldiers
I Love Thy Kingdom, Lord
Author: Timothy Dwight Hymnal: Celebrating Grace Hymnal #262 (2010) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: The Church as Community Identity Lyrics: 1 I love Thy kingdom, Lord,
the house of Thine abode,
the church our blest Redeemer saved
with His own precious blood.
2 I love Thy church, O God!
Her walls before Thee stand,
dear as the apple of Thine eye,
and graven on Thy hand.
3 For her my tears shall fall;
for her my prayers ascend;
to her my cares and toils be given
till toils and cares shall end.
4 Beyond my highest joy
I prize her heavenly ways,
her sweet communion, solemn vows,
her hymns of love and praise.
5 Sure as Thy truth shall last,
to Zion shall be given
the brightest glories earth can yield,
and brighter bliss of heaven. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. THOMAS

When the Church of Jesus
Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: Celebrating Grace Hymnal #287 (2010) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Topics: The Church as Community Formation Lyrics: 1 When the church of Jesus shuts its outer door,
lest the roar of traffic drown the voice of prayer:
may our prayers, Lord, make us ten times more aware
that the world we banish is our Christian care.
2 If our hearts are lifted where devotion soars
high above this hungry suffering world of ours:
lest our hymns should drug us to forget its needs,
forge our Christian worship into Christian deeds.
3 Lest the gifts we offer, money, talents, time,
serve to salve our conscience to our secret shame:
Lord, reprove, inspire us by the way You give;
teach us, dying Savior, how true Christians live. Languages: English Tune Title: KING'S WESTON

To Worship, Work, and Witness
Author: Henry Lyle Lambdin Hymnal: Celebrating Grace Hymnal #263 (2010) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Church as Community Identity Lyrics: 1 To worship, work, and witness,
the Good News spread abroad,
we magnify your mission,
Church of the living God;
the Father's new creation
through Jesus Christ His Son,
the Spirit has empowered
to do as Christ has done.
2 Be yours the Master's purpose
to seek and save the lost,
to ransom those in bondage,
to dare not count the cost;
to love and lift the lowly,
to heed the prisoner's groan,
to take up others' burdens
and bear them as your own.
3 As members of Christ's body,
hold fast to Christ your Head;
become Christ's open letter,
by others to be read;
bear witness as Christ's temple,
Himself the cornerstone,
and be Christ's living altar
whereon His love is shown.

Love Divine, All Loves Excelling
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Celebrating Grace Hymnal #281 (2010) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: The Church as Community Formation Lyrics: 1 Love divine, all loves excelling,
joy of heaven to earth come down,
fix in us Thy humble dwelling;
all Thy faithful mercies crown.
Jesus, Thou art all compassion,
pure, unbounded love Thou art;
visit us with Thy salvation;
enter every trembling heart.
2 Breathe, O breathe Thy loving Spirit
into every troubled breast!
Let us all in Thee inherit,
let us find the promised rest.
Take away our bent to sinning;
Alpha and Omega be;
end of faith, as its beginning,
set our hearts at liberty.
3 Come, Almighty to deliver,
let us all Thy grace receive;
suddenly return, and never,
nevermore Thy temples leave.
Thee we would be always blessing,
serve Thee as Thy hosts above,
pray, and praise Thee without ceasing,
glory in Thy perfect love.
4 Finish, then, Thy new creation;
pure and spotless let us be;
let us see Thy great salvation
perfectly restored in Thee:
changed from glory into glory,
till in heaven we take our place,
till we cast our crowns before Thee,
lost in wonder, love, and praise. Languages: English Tune Title: BEECHER

to live the words we say. Languages: English Tune Title: NOEL

seek alone in Jesus rest;
has He not your love excited?
Then let love inspire each breast.
Members on our Head depending,
lights reflecting Him, our Sun,
Christians, His commands attending,
we in Him, our Lord, are one.
2 Come, then, come, O flock of Jesus,
covenant with Him anew;
unto Him who conquered for us,
pledge we love and service true;
and should our love's union holy
firmly linked no more remain
wait ye at His footstool lowly,
till He draw it close again.
3 Grant, Lord, that with Thy direction,
"Love each other," we comply,
aiming with unfeigned affection
Thy love to exemplify;
let our mutual love be glowing,
so that all will plainly see
that we, as on one stem growing,
living branches are in Thee.
4 O that such may be our union
as Thine with the Father is,
and not one of our communion
e'er forsake the path of bliss;
may our light shine forth with brightness,
from Thy light reflected, shine;
thus the world will bear us witness,
that we, Lord, are truly Thine. Scripture: John 15:12-17 Languages: English Tune Title: CASSELL
