Text Based On Ephesians Chapter 2 (KJV)
But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God,
which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.

Church of the Living God
1.
Church of the living God,
pillar and ground of truth,
Keep the old paths the fathers trod,
in thy illumined youth.
2.
Lo, in thy bosom lies,
the touchstone for the age;
Seducing error shrinks and dies,
at light from yonder page.
3.
Woe to the hands that dare,
by lust of power enticed,
To mingle with the doctrine there,
the frauds of Antichrist.
4.
Once to the saints was giv’n,
all blessèd Gospel truth;
There, written down in words from heav’n,
thou hast it evermore.
5.
Fear not though doubts abound,
and scoffing tongues deride;
Love of God’s Word finds surer ground,
when to the utmost tried.
6.
Toil at the sacred text;
more fruitful grows the field;
Each generation to the next,
prepares a richer yield.
7.
God’s Spirit in the Church,
still lives unspent, untired,
Inspiring hearts that fain would search,
the truths Himself inspired.
8.
Move, Holy Ghost, with might-
amongst us as of old;
Dispel the falsehood, and unite,
in true faith and true fold.
A blessèd Seventh Day (Saturday) Sabbath,
to all true believers.
In the Son’s Name - For the Father’s glory.
