344 – I Love Your Kingdom, Lord

1

I love thy kingdom, Lord,

the house of thine abode,

the church our blest Redeemer saved

with his own precious blood.

2

I love thy 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 her heavenly ways,

her sweet communion, solemn vows,

her hymns of love and praise.

4

Sure as thy truth shall last,

to Zion shall be given

the brightest glories earth can yield,

and brighter bliss of heaven.
