Christ is Our Cornerstone

from Christ Is Our Cornerstone (2012) by Gregory Wilbur

lyrics

Christ is our cornerstone, On Him alone we build;
With His true saints alone The courts of Heav’n are filled;
On His great love our hopes we place Of present grace and joys above.

O then with hymns of praise These hallowed courts shall ring;
Our voices we will raise The Three in One to sing;
And thus pro-claim in joyful song Both loud and long, that glorious name.

Here may we gain from Heav’n, The grace which we implore;
And may that grace, once giv’n, Be with us evermore;
Until that day when all the blest To endless rest are called away.
