[00:07.51]The Church's one foundation
[00:12.00]Is Jesus Christ her Lord.
[00:16.45]She is His new creation
[00:21.58]By water and the Word;
[00:26.11]From heav'n He came and sought her
[00:31.30]To be His holy bride,
[00:35.68]With His own blood He bought her,
[00:40.95]And for her life He died.
[00:46.68]
[00:48.19]Elect from ev'ry nation,
[00:52.78]Yet one o'er all the earth,
[00:57.46]Her charter of salvation,
[01:02.65]One Lord, one faith, one birth;
[01:07.63]One holy name she blesses,
[01:12.61]Partakes one holy food.
[01:17.33]And to one hope she presses,
[01:22.39]With ev'ry grace endued.
[01:28.11]
[01:29.42]'Mid toil and tribulation,
[01:34.02]And tumult of her war,
[01:38.63]She waits the consummation
[01:43.54]Of peace for evermore;
[01:48.19]Till with the vision glorious,
[01:53.11]Her longing eyes are blest,
[01:57.91]And the great Church victorious
[02:03.17]Shall be the Church at rest.
[02:08.49]
[02:09.26]Yet she on earth hath union
[02:14.81]With God,the Three in One.
[02:19.09]And mystic sweet communion
[02:24.42]With those whose rest is won;
[02:28.90]O happy ones and holy!
[02:34.12]Lord, give us grace that we
[02:39.11]Like them, the meek and lowly,
[02:44.84]On high may dwell with Thee.
