Description

For SATB choir, congregation, organ, and brass quartet, “As Stone on Living Stone Is Set” features a reflective text by Lisa M. Clark and an inviting tune by Kevin Hildebrand. This festive and glorious piece is useful for church anniversaries or any Sunday when the readings teach about Christ and His Church.

The choral part is available as item 984256.

As stone on living stone is set For worship on this ground, Hold fast onto the Cornerstone, The one foundation sound. Held firm through generations With God’s own power shored. In ages past, for years to come, Our hope is in the Lord.

Now we approach this holy place With confidence secure; The Lamb of God has cleansed our hearts And made our spirits pure. The sacrifice completed, His holy blood outpoured. O people, come and marvel here What love Christ will afford.

When steeples fall and bells are mute And temple stones thrown down, We waver not but trust in Him Who wears th’eternal crown. The Church awaits with longing For all to be restored. Though ruins lie about our feet, Our King is still adored.

Bear witness to the nations, then. The Day is drawing near. In full assurance, spread the Word. In love, serve without fear. Though persecution threatens, The Word of God abhorred, The faithful One is coming soon And gives His sure reward.

No church or temple will be seen When saints and angels meet. The Church Triumphant will bow down And worship at Christ’s feet. Prepare all hearts and voices To praise in joyful chord: “In ages past and evermore, Our hope is in the Lord!”
