EN 2282 On This Stone Now Laid with Prayer

Isa.28.16

Versi Version 1

1

On this stone now laid with prayer,

Let Thy church rise, strong and fair;

Ever, Lord, Thy Name be known,

Where we lay this cornerstone.

2

Let Thy holy Child, who came

Man from error to reclaim,

And for sinners to atone,

With Thee, bless this cornerstone.

3

Let the Spirit from above,

That once hovered like a dove

O’er the Jordan, hither flown

Hover o’er this cornerstone.

4

In the sinner’s troubled breast,

In the heart by care oppressed,

Let the seeds of truth be sown,

Where we’ve laid this cornerstone.

5

Open wide, O God, Thy door,

For the outcast and the poor,

Who can call no house their own,

Where we lay this cornerstone.

6

By wise master builders squared,

Here be living stones prepared

For the temple near Thy throne,

Jesus Christ its Cornerstone.
