CONSECRATION.
Jesus is God, and God alone,
Oh, be this TRUTH confest,
For 't is the sure foundation stone
On which the church shall rest.
Oh, be this TRUTH confest,
For 't is the sure foundation stone
On which the church shall rest.
Though modern builders pass it by,
And scribes and priests reject,
On this blest TRUTH, which they deny,
We now the church erect.
And scribes and priests reject,
On this blest TRUTH, which they deny,
We now the church erect.
Though earth and hell against it join,
Yet must this building rise;
The work, Almighty God, is thine,
And wondrous in our eyes
Yet must this building rise;
The work, Almighty God, is thine,
And wondrous in our eyes
