Tune: Harewood
(\'Christ is our corner stone\')
Psalm 118 v.19-23
*********
The gates to me open
And then I will go in
The gate of righteousness
Of the Temple, no less
\'Tis the gate of the Lord, I will
Go through it, and will praise Him still
The righteous shall enter
This gate, and not defer
I will praise the Lord, He
Has heard my prayers, so be
And has become my salvation
Through Jesus Christ His only Son
The stone which the builders
Refuse, it now concurs
That this same stone it be
The chief corner stone, see
This is the Lord\'s doing, it is
Marvellous in our eyes, such bliss
For rejected by men
Taken up by God then
Corner stone, foundation
Of faith for every one
Holding all together, built strong
Shall last for eternity long
