Lyrics
Verse 1
I love Thy kingdom, Lord, The house of Thine abode; The church our blest Redeemer saved With His own precious blood.
Verse 2
I love Thy church, O God! Her walls before Thee stand, Dear as the apple of Thine eye, And graven on Thy hand.
Verse 3
For her my tears shall fall, For her my prayers ascend; To her my cares and toils be giv'n, Till toils and cares shall end.
Verse 4
Beyond my highest joy I prize her heavn'ly ways, Her sweet communion, solemn vows, Her hymns of love and praise.
Verse 5
Jesus, Thou Friend divine, Our Savior and our King! Thy hand from ev'ry snare and foe Shall great deliv'rance bring.
Verse 6
Sure as Thy truth shall last, To Zion shall be giv'n The brightest glories earth can yield, And brighter bliss of heav'n.
