| His bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty God of Jacob; from thence is the shepherd, the stone of Israel. (Gen. 49:24) |
| Wherefore also it is contained in the Scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief cornerstone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on Him shall not be confounded. (1 Peter 2:6) |
No other hope shall intervene:
To Him we look; on Him we lean:
Other foundations we disown,
And build on Christ, the “Living Stone.” |
On Christ salvation rests secure;
The Rock of Ages must endure;
Nor can that faith be overthrown
Which rests upon the “Living Stone.” |
