+|The Church’s foundation is one alone, the Lord Jesus bears it,
+|-
+|
+|He created it wholly anew by the Word and by water;
+|-
+|
+|From heaven He came down, know, to take the bride,
+|-
+|
+|And to give her life He gave His own life.
+|-
+|2
+|From all lands He took her, yet she is one special one,
+|-
+|
+|She keeps faith, observing the ordinance of the one God;
+|-
+|
+|Singing praise to one Name, she shares one holy food,
+|-
+|
+|And covered by grace she walks by one hope.
+|-
+|3
+|Bearing her great affliction, the world sees her with scorn,
+|-
+|
+|There are grievous divisions in her, she is grieved by evil thought;
+|-
+|
+|But the saints cry out: "How long, O Lord?"
+|-
+|
+|When the heavy night of weeping passes, there is great joy.
+|-
+|4
+|Therefore she fights and now endures sorrows,
+|-
+|
+|Holding the hope of peace, that it may be hers forever;
+|-
+|
+|When she beholds the glory, she shall be satisfied,
+|-
+|
+|And the victorious Church shall become full of peace.
+|-
+|5
+|On earth she keeps fellowship with the Triune Lord,
+|-
+|
+|And shows secret communion with those who have found rest;
+|-
+|
+|Ah, how pure and happy! O Lord, grant that dwelling,
+|-
+|
+|That, like those humble ones, we may remain near You.
