LyicsCHRIST is our Corner-stone;
On him alone we build;
With his true saints alone
The courts of heaven are filled:
On his great love our hopes we place,
Of present grace and joys above.
Oh, then with hymns of praise
These hallowed courts shall ring!
Our voices we will raise,
The name of Christ to sing;
And thus proclaim in joyful song,
Both loud and long, that glorious Name.
