Upon thy Holy Word, O Lord, The weary ages rest; Upon their aching heart is poured This balm of Gilead blest.

Upon this firm foundation set, Thy church doth stand, O Lord; Its sword, its crown, its life, is yet Thine everlasting Word.

O heart of Christ, thy boundless love In this thy Word doth beat; Still o'er thy head appears the dove, The nail prints in thy feet.

Thou answer to all human woes, Thou guide of every life, Thou tower of refuge from our foes, Thou armor strong for strife;

Thou fount of living waters free, Thou voice of Holy Ghost, Still daily let me live with thee, Until I join heaven's host.
