344 - I Love Your Kingdom, Lord

I love Your kingdom, Lord,
The house of Your abode,
The Church our blest Redeemer saved
With His own precious blood.
2
I love Your church, O God!
Her walls before Thee stand
Dear as the apple of Thine eye,
And graven on Thy hand.
3
Beyond my highest joy
I prize its heavenly ways,
Its sweet communion, solemn vows,
Its hymns of love and praise.
5
Sure as Your truth shall last,
To Zion shall be given
The brightest glories earth can yield,
And brighter bliss of heaven.
