And soon the night of weeping shall be the morn of song. 4 The church shall never perish! Her dear Lord to defend, to guide, sustain, and cherish, is with her to the end; though there be those that hate her, and false sons in her pale, against or foe or traitor she ever shall prevail. 5 '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 the great church victorious shall be the church at rest. 6 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. Scripture: Romans 12:5 Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

Habitant le ciel même, il vint se l’attacher, et, par un don suprême, mourut pour la sauver! 2 L’église en sa prière unit à leur Sauveur les peuples de la terre, soumis au seul Seigneur. C’est son nom qu’elle acclame, son pain qui la nourrit; elle verse à toute âme l’espoir qui la guérit. 3 Honnie et méconnue, menant de durs combats, elle attend la venue de la paix ici-bas. Contemplant par avance la fin de son tourment, la grande délivrance, le repos permanent. 4 Aujourd’hui, sur la terre, elle est unie à Dieu, et, par un saint mystère, aux élus du saint lieu. Rends-nous, comme eux, fidèles, et reçois-nous, Seigneur, dans la vie éternelle, dans l’éternel bonheur! --- HUNGARIAN - 1 Az egyháznak a Jézus a fundámentoma, A szent Ígére épült fel lelki temploma. Leszállt a mennyből hívni és eljegyezni őt, Megváltva drága vérén a váltságban hívőt. 2 Kihívott minden népből egy lelki népet itt, Kit egy Úr, egy keresztség és egy hit egyesít. Csak egy nevet magasztal, csak egy cél vonja őt, és egy terített asztal ád néki új erőt. 3 A világ fejedelme feltámad ellene, Vagy hamis tudománytól gyaláztatik neve, S míg egykor felderül majd az Úrnak hajnala, Csak virrasztói kérdik: Meddig az éjszaka? 4 Sok bajban, küzdelemben meghajszolt, megvetett, De szent megújulásért és békéért eped, Míg látomása egykor dicsőn beteljesül, S a győzedelmes egyház Urával egyesül. 5 A három-egy Istennel már itt e földön egy, S az üdvözült sereggel egy nép és egy sereg. Ó mily áldott reménység: Ha itt időnk lejár, Te boldog szenteiddel fenn Nálad béke vár! Scripture: John 3:5 Languages: English; French; Hungarian Tune Title: AURELIA

Yet he who dwells in heav'n above chooses to live with us in love, making our bodies his temple. 3 We are God's house of living stones, built for his own habitation; he fills our hearts, his humble thrones, granting us life and salvation. Yet to this place, an earthly frame, we come with thanks to praise his name; God grants his people true blessing. 4 Through all the passing years, O Lord, grant that, when church bells are ringing, many may come to hear God's word where he this promise is bringing: "I know my own, my own know me, you, not the world, my face shall see; my peace I lave with you."
