LyicsI LOVE thy kingdom, Lord,
The house of thine abode,
The Church, our blest Redeemer sav'd
With his own precious blood.
Beyond my highest joy
I prize her heavenly ways,
Her sweet communion, solemn vows,
Her hymns of love and praise.
Jesus, thou Friend divine,
Our Saviour and our King:
Thy hand from every snare and foe
Shall great deliv'rance bring.
Sure as thy truth shall last,
To Zion shall be given
The brightest glories earth can yield,
And brighter bliss of heaven.
