With His own precious blood.

I love the Church, O God!

Her walls before Thee stand,

你對待她愛護入微,
And graven on Thy hand.
猶如眼中瞳人。

To her my cares and toils be given

Till toils and cares shall end.

Her sweet communion, solemn vows,
甜美交通,由衷奉獻
Her hymns of love and praise.

Sure as Thy truth shall last,

To Zion shall be given

And brighter bliss of heaven.
