Oasis Worship, Randy Rothwell - The Church's One Foundation Lyrics

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.

Elect from every nation,
Yet one o'er all the earth,
Her charter of salvation:
One Lord, one faith , one birth.
One holy name she blesses,
Partakes one holy food,
And to one hope she presses,
With every grace endued.

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