1 See what a living-stone The builders did refuse; Yet God hath built his church thereon In spite of envious Jews.
2 The scribe and angry priest Reject thine only Son; Yet on this rock shall Zion rest, As the chief corner-stone.
3 The work, O Lord, is thine, And wondrous in our eyes; This day declares it all divine, This day did Jesus rise.
4 This is the glorious day That our Redeemer made; Let us rejoice, and sing, and pray, Let all the church be glad.
5 Hosanna to the King Of David's royal blood: Bless him, ye saints; he comes to bring Salvation from your God.
6 We bless thine holy word, Which all this grace displays; And offer on thine altar, Lord, Our sacrifice of praise.
