The Church's One Foundation (教会根基歌) - The Mariners

The Church's one foundation

Is jesus Christ her lord

She is his new creation

By water and the word

From heaven he came and sought her

To be his holy bride

With his own blood he bought her

And for her life he died

Mid toil and tribulation

And tumult of her war

She waits why consummation

Of peace forever more

Till with the vision glorious

Her longing eyes are blest

And the great church victorious

Shall be the church at rest
