The Church's One Foundation
Author: Samuel J. Stone Hymnal: Hymns of Faith #77 (1980) Scripture: Ephesians 4:4-5 Lyrics: 1 The Church’s one foundation
Is Jesus Christ her Lord;
She is His new creation
By water and the word;
From heav'n 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
Men see her sore 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 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.
Amen.

1 Un solo fundamento
y un sólo un fundador
la santa iglesia tiene
en Cristo, su Señor.
Haciéndola su esposa,
del cielo descendió,
y por su propia sangre
su libertad compró.
2 Aunque es de muchas razas,
disfruta de unidad:
sólo una fe confiesa
en santa caridad;
es uno su bautismo,
un pan de santidad;
por gracia siempre espera
una felicidad.
3 El mundo la contempla
pasmado y con desdén:
de cismas desgarrada,
de error y por vaivén.
Mas *santos de vigilia
no cesan en su orar,
y pronto por la noche
oirán gozo y cantar.
4 Cercada de tumultos,
de guerra y confusión,
la paz eterna espera,
serena en su visión;
al fin, ya victoriosa,
la iglesia terrenal
recibe como premio
descanso celestial.
5 Mas ella aquí disfruta
celeste comunión
con Dios y con los santos
en paz y perfección.
Jesús, cabeza nuestra,
concéde por tu amor
que siempre contemplemos
tu rostro, Redentor.
