1
O Christ the great foundation
On which your people stand
To preach your true salvation
In every age and land:

2
Pour out your Holy Spirit
To make us strong and pure,
To keep the faith unbroken
As long as worlds endure.

(Interlude)

3
Baptized in one confession,
One church in all the earth,
We bear our Lord’s impression,
The sign of second birth:

4
One holy people gathered
In love beyond our own,
By grace we were invited,
By grace we make you known.

(Interlude)

5
Where tyrants’ hold is tightened,
Where strong devour the weak,
Where innocents are frightened
The righteous fear to speak.

6
There let your church awaking
Attack the pow’r of sin
And, all their ramparts breaking,
With you the vict’ry win.

7
This is the moment glorious
When he who once was dead
Shall lead his church victorious,
The champion and their head.

8
The Lord of all creation
His heav’nly kingdom brings
The final consummation,
The glory of all things.
