Christ Is Made the Sure Foundation
Hymn Number 559

1.	Christ is made the sure foundation, 
	Christ the head and cornerstone; 
	chosen of the Lord and precious, 
	binding all the church in one; 
	holy Zion's help forever, 
	and her confidence alone. 

2.	To this temple, where we call thee, 
	come, O Lord of Hosts, today! 
	With thy faithful loving-kindness 
	hear thy people as they pray, 
	and thy fullest benediction 
	shed within its walls alway. 

3.	Here vouchsafe to all thy servants 
	what they ask of thee to gain; 
	what they gain from thee forever 
	with the blessed to retain, 
	and hereafter in thy glory
	evermore with thee to reign. 

4.	Laud and honor to the Father, 
	laud and honor to the Son, 
	laud and honor to the Spirit, 
	ever three and ever one; 
	one in might and one in glory, 
	while unending ages run.
