We hail Thee, Lord, Thy Church's rock
Author: N. L. von Zinzendorf Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #525 (1913) Topics: Church of Christ Lyrics: 1 We hail Thee, Lord, Thy Church's rock,
With joyful acclamation!
Thou guardian Shepherd of Thy flock,
Come, feed Thy congregation.
We own the doctrine of Thy cross
To be our sole foundation:
Accept from every one of us
The deepest adoration.
2 O Thou, who always dost abide
Thy Church's head and Savior,
Be still Thy servants' constant guide,
Direct our whole behavior.
Thy statutes to Thy Church declare,
Still watch o'er its salvation:
Each member make Thy special care
And aid him in his station.
3 Jesus, the Church's head and Lord,
Who as a shepherd leadest,
And with Thy sacrament and word
Thy people richly feedest:
For mercies in such countless throng
We bow our hearts before Thee,
And hope we shall in heaven ere long
More worthily adore Thee. Tune Title: [We hail Thee, Lord, Thy Church's rock]

Jesus Christ, Our Sure Foundation
Behold the sure Foundation-stone
Author: I. Watts Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #82 (1913) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Church of Christ Lyrics: 1 Behold the sure Foundation-stone
Which God in Zion lays,
To build our heavenly hopes upon,
And His eternal praise.
2 Chosen of God, to sinners dear,
Let saints adore the Name;
They trust their whole salvation here
Nor shall they suffer shame.
3 The foolish builders, scribe and priest,
Reject it with disdain;
Yet on this Rock the Church shall rest,
And envy rage in vain.
4 What though the gates of hell withstood
Yet must this building rise;
’Tis Thine own work, almighty God,
And wondrous in our eyes. Tune Title: [Behold the sure Foundation stone]

Zion stands with hills surrounded
Author: T. Kelly Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #83 (1913) Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.4.7 Topics: Church of Christ Lyrics: 1 Zion stands with hills surrounded;
Zion kept by power divine
All her foes shall be confounded,
Though the world in arms combine.
Happy Zion, Happy Zion,
What a favored lot is thine!
2 Every human tie may perish;
Friend to friend unfaithful prove;
Mothers cease their own to cherish;
Heaven and earth at last remove:
But no changes, But no changes
Can attend Jehovah’s love.
3 In the furnace God may prove thee,
Thence to bring thee forth more bright,
But can never cease to love thee;
Thou art precious in His sight:
God is with thee: God is with thee:
God, thine everlasting light. Tune Title: [Zion stands with hills surrounded]
Zion stands with hills surrounded
Be not dismayed, thou little flock
Author: J. M. Altenburg Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #85 (1913) Topics: Church of Christ Lyrics: 1 Be not dismayed, thou little flock,
Although the foe's fierce battle-shock,
Loud on all sides, assail thee;
Though o'er thy fall they laugh secure,
Their triumph cannot long endure:
Let not thy courage fail thee.
2 Thy cause is God's; go at His call,
And to His hand commit thy all;
Fear thou no ill impending:
His Gideon shall arise for thee,
God's word and people manfully,
In God's own time defending.
3 Our hope is sure in Jesus' might;
Against themselves the godless fight,
Themselves, not us, distressing;
Shame and contempt their lot shall be;
God is with us, with Him are we,
To us belongs His blessing. Tune Title: [Be not dismayed, thou little flock]
Be not dismayed, thou little flock
Awake, Thou Spirit, who didst fire
Author: C. A. von Bogatzky Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #116 (1913) Topics: Church of Christ Lyrics: 1 Awake, Thou Spirit, who didst fire
The watchmen of the Church’s youth,
Who faced the foe’s envenomed ire,
Who witnessed day and night Thy truth,
Whose voices loud are ringing still,
And bringing hosts to know Thy will.
2 Lord, let our earnest prayers be heard,
The prayer Thy Son hath bid us pray,
For lo, Thy children’s hearts are stirred
In every land in this our day,
To cry with fervent soul to Thee,
O help us, Lord! so let it be!
3 O haste to help, ere we are lost!
Send preachers forth, in spirit strong,
Armed with Thy Word, a dauntless host,
Bold to attack the rule of wrong;
Let them the earth for Thee reclaim,
Thy heritage, to know Thy Name.
4 Would there were help within our walls!
O let Thy Spirit come again,
Before whom every barrier falls,
And now once more shine forth as then!
O rend the heavens and make us free!
Come, Lord, and bring us back to Thee!
5 And let Thy Word have speedy course,
Through every land be glorified,
Till all the heathen know its force,
And fill Thy churches far and wide;
Wake Israel from her sleep, O Lord,
And spread the conquests of Thy Word!
6 The Church's desert paths restore;
Let stumbling-blocks that in them lie
Hinder Thy Word henceforth no more:
Error destroy, and heresy,
And let Thy Church, from hirelings free,
Bloom as a garden fair to Thee! Tune Title: [Awake, Thou Spirit, who didst fire]
Awake, Thou Spirit, who didst fire
The Church's One Foundation
Author: Samuel J. Stone, 1839-1900 Hymnal: Revival Hymns and Choruses #260 (1970) Topics: Church of Christ 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 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 '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.
4 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. Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

In exultant jubilation
Pours perpetual melody;

In glad hymns eternally.

Come, O Lord of hosts, today:
With thy wonted loving-kindness
Hear thy people as they pray;
And thy fullest benediction
Shed within its walls alway.
4 Here vouchsafe to all thy servants
What they ask of thee to gain,
What they gain from thee for ever
With the blessed to retain,
And hereafter in thy glory
Evermore with thee to reign.

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.

Christ hath a garden walled around
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #273 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Church The Church of Christ Lyrics: 1 Christ hath a garden walled around,
A Paradise of fruitful ground,
Chosen by love and fenced by grace
From out the world's wide wilderness.

There planted by his mighty hand;
By Eden's gracious streams, that flow
To feed their beauty where they grow.
3 Awake, O wind of heav'n and bear
Their sweetest perfume through the air:
Stir up, O south, the boughs that bloom,
Till the beloved Master come:
4 That he may come, and linger yet
Among the trees that he hath set;
That he may evermore be seen
To walk amid the springing green.
Amen. Scripture: Song of Solomon 4:16 Languages: English Tune Title: LEIGHTON
Christ hath a garden walled around
