Cornerstone

Bida 1985 (Riyadh)

Of Church foundation
The cornerstone
In none other than
Jesus Christ alone

Along with that
Of Church the Head
As He alone is
Of life the Bread

He of Church is
The perfect wisdom
Invites everyone to
The heavenly kingdom

He is the One
Foundation sure
Of all sicknesses
He is the cure

Comfort by Him
Is not temporal
But all that He
Gives is eternal
