主所揀選何等珍貴，教會合一聚會眾，
錫安神聖！救助永生，唯獨信靠大恩寵。
2. 聖所敬拜，永告主名，萬軍之王今光臨；
常賜慈愛、豐盛恩惠，聖民祈禱主聆聽，
完美祝福，會眾讚美歌聲響徹聖殿中。
3. 主賜恩惠，厚待忠僕，一切所求都應允，
主所賜予歡喜領受，永遠蒙福恩無盡，
盼望將來在榮耀中，擁戴榮耀大寶座。
4. 尊貴、榮耀歸於聖父，尊貴、榮耀歸於聖小，
尊貴、榮耀歸於聖靈，三位一體同尊榮，
同展大能，同顯榮耀，世世無窮到永恆。Christ Is Made the Sure Foundation
Christ is made the sure foundation,Christ the head and cornerstone,chosen of the Lord, and precious,binding all the Church in one;holy Zion's help for ever,and her confidence alone. All that dedicated city,dearly loved of God on high,in exultant jubilationpours perpetual melody;God the One in Three adoringin glad hymns eternally. To this temple, where we call thee,come, O Lord of Hosts, today;with thy wonted loving-kindnesshear thy servants as they pray,and thy fullest benedictionshed within its walls alway. Here vouchsafe to all thy servantswhat they ask of thee of gain;what they gain from thee, for everwith the blessèd to retain,and hereafter in thy gloryevermore with thee to reign. Laud and honor to the Father,laud and honor to the Son,laud and honor to the Spirit,ever Three, and ever One,consubstantial, co-eternal,while unending ages run. Words: Latin, seventh century;trans. John Mason Neale, 1851
