Beautiful things in them are said; God there with us His covenant made, Making us heirs of His kingdom. 6 Here stands the font before our eyes Telling how God did receive us; The altar recalls Christ’s sacrifice And what His table doth give us; Here sounds the Word that doth proclaim Christ yesterday, today, the same, Yea, and for aye our Redeemer. 7 Grant then, O God, where’er men roam, That, when the church-bells are ringing, Many in saving faith may come Where Christ His message is bringing: “I know Mine own, Mine own know Me; Ye, not the world, My face shall see. My peace I leave with you.” Amen.
