I cried out for your help and pleaded for your grace: 4 "What good am I when dead, while lying in the grave? Can dust recount your love, the grave proclaim your praise? O hear me, gracious LORD, in mercy be my aid!" 5 My mourning you have turned to dancing and to joy; my sadness you dispelled as gladness filled my soul. And so I'll sing your praise, my God, through all my days. Topics: Sickness & Health; Easter; Eternal Life; Sickness & Health; Thanksgiving & Gratitude Used With Tune: BISHOP TUCKER

The Church's One Foundation

Author: Samuel John Stone Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 856 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 30:5 Lyrics: 1 The church's one foundation is Jesus Christ her Lord; she is his new creation by water '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 ev'ry 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 ev'ry grace endued. 3 Though with a scornful wonder men see her sore oppress'd, by schisms rent asunder, by heresies distress'd; 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 for evermore, till with the vision glorious her longing eyes are blest, and the great church victorious shall be the church at rest. 5 Yet she on earth hath 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.
