1. The
[Verse 1]
The church s one foundation, is Jesus Christ her Lord,
She is His new cre-a- tion, by water and the Word.
From heav n He came and sought her to be His holy bride;
{Riff 1}
With His own blood He bought her and for her life He died.
[Verse 2]
Elect from ev ry nation, yet one o er all the earth;
Her charter of sal-va-tion, One Lord, one faith, one birth;
One holy Name she blesses, partakes one holy food,
{Riff 1}
And to one hope she presses, with ev ry grace en - dued.
[Verse 3]
Though with a scornful wonder men see her sore oppressed,
By schisms rent a-sun der, by heresies distressed,
Yet saints their watch are keeping, their cry goes up,
