Church of the everlasting God

Verse 1

Church of the ever-living God, The Father's gracious choice, Amid the voices of this earth How feeble is thy voice!

Verse 2

Not many rich or noble called, Not many great or wise; They whom God makes his kings and priests Are poor in human eyes.

Verse 3

But the chief Shepherd comes at length; Their feeble days are o'er, No more a handful in the earth, A little flock no more.

Verse 4

Then entering the eternal halls, In robes of victory, That mighty multitude shall keep The joyous jubilee.
