The Church’s one foundation
Is Jesus Christ her Lord;
She is His new creation
By water and the Word.

More quotes by Samuel John Stone

Weary of earth and laden with my sin,
I look at heaven, and long to enter in.

Yet Saints their watch are keeping,
Their cry goes up, ‘How long?’
And soon the night of weeping
Shall be the morn of song.

’Mid toil and tribulation,
And tumult of her war,
She waits the consummation
Of peace for evermore;
Till with the vision glorious
Her longing eyes are blest,
And the great Church victorious
Shall be the Church at rest.
