lyrics
I love Thy kingdom Lord,
the house of Thine abode,
The church our blessed Redeemer saved
with His own precious blood.
I love Thy church, O God,
her walls before Thee stand
dear as the apple of Thine eye
and written on Thy hand.
Jesus, Friend, Lord and King,
unto Thee Your Bride sings;
unto Thee Your Bride brings
worries, fears, hopes and dreams.
For her my tears shall fall,
for her my prayers ascend,
to her my cares and toils be given,
till toils and cares shall end.
Beyond my highest joy
I prize her heavenly ways;
her sweet communion, solemn vows,
her hymns of love and praise.
Refrain
Sure as Thy truth shall last,
to Zion shall be given,
the brightest glories earth can yield
and brighter bliss of Heaven.
