Psalm 118 (Version 6)

Lo! what a glorious corner-stone

The Jewish builders did refuse;

But God hath built his church thereon,

In spite of envy and the Jews.

Great God, the work is all divine,

The joy and wonder of our eyes;

This is the day that proves it thine,

The day that saw our Saviour rise.

Sinners rejoice, and saints be glad:

Hosanna, let his Name be blest:

A thousand honours on his head,

With peace, and light, and glory, rest.

In God's own name he comes to bring

Salvation to our dying race:

Let the whole church address their King

With hearts of joy, and songs of praise.
