LORIOUS things of thee are spoken, mf 3 Blest inhabitants of Zion,

GL

Zion, city of our God;

He, Whose word cannot be broken,
Formed thee for His own abode :
On the Rock of Ages founded,

What can shake Thy sure repose?
With salvation's walls surrounded,

Thou mayst smile at all thy foes. f[2 See, the streams of living waters, Springing from eternal love, Well supply thy sons and daughters, And all fear of want remove : Who can faint, while such a river

Ever flows their thirst to assuage; Grace, which, like the Lord the giver, Never fails from age to age?]

Washed in the Redeemer's blood;
Jesus, Whom their souls rely on,

Makes them kings and priests to God.
"Tis His love His people raises
Over self to reign as kings;
And as priests, His solemn praises
Each for a thankoffering brings.

mf 4 Saviour, if of Zion's city

I, through grace, a member am,
Let the world deride or pity,
I will glory in Thy name:
dim Fading is the worldling's pleasure,
All his boasted pomp and show

cr Solid joys and lasting treasure
f None but Zion's children know. Amen
J. NEWTON.

mf THE Church's one foundation

Is Jesus Christ her Lord;

She is His new creation

By water and the word :

From heaven He came and sought her
To be His holy bride;

dim With His own blood He bought her, And for her life He died.

mf 2 Elect from every nation,

Yet one o'er all the earth,
Her charter of salvation

One Lord, one Faith, one Birth.
One Holy Name she blesses,

Partakes one Holy Food,
And to one hope she presses
With every grace endued.
