Behold the church in rich array,
How glorious she appears:
Adorned with charms that ne’er decay,
And still new trophies wears.
Decked in the Saviour’s righteousness,
She’s brighter than the sun,
E’en when it enters on its race,
Or blazed forth at noon.
A splendid starry crown she wears,
A royal throne her seat;
All carnal joys and earthly cares,
She treads beneath her feet.
Legions of angels round her wait,
To comfort and secure;
Her heavenly form and blessed estate,
For ever shall endure.
