Christ Is Our Corner-Stone.

This reproduces in Chandler's translation a song-service in an ancient Latin liturgy (angulare fundamentum).

Christ 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.

O then with hymns of praise These hallowed courts shall ring; Our voices we will raise The Three-in-One to sing. And thus proclaim In joyful song But loud and long That glorious Name.
