4 As the Foundation doth uphold The whole Fabrick; Thou dost bear up each Stone, O Lord, All Members to thee stick:
5 Each Soul thou dost unite to thee In sure bonds of Love; O there's a blessed harmony 'Mong Saints born from above.
6 Without this safe Foundation, Lord, No Building's there at all; If any do not on thee build, Their Souls and hopes will fall:
7 Yet shall the Just in thee rejoice, Who trust, Lord, in thy might; They shall Praise sing with mind and voice Whose hearts with thee are right.
7 Yet shall the Just in thee rejoyce, Who trust, Lord, in thy might; They shall Praise sing with mind and voice Whose hearts with thee are right.
