St. Simon and St. Jude

Let the Church of God rejoice,
For the Apostles' fostering care,
For the sounding of their voice,
For their preaching and their prayer;

Whom the Lord our God did choose,
To the farthest lands to go;
Whom the Husbandman did use
Holiest seed on earth to sow.

In the new Jerusalem
Twelve foundations firm are laid;
On the Apostles of the Lamb
Is the glorious structure stayed.

Firmly built on them, may we,
Bound to Christ, our Corner-Stone,
In the heavenly temple be,
One in heart, in doctrine one.
