1. In God my faith is founded
who heaven and earth has made;
whose mind all things imagined,
whose will great gifts displayed.
We know God through Christ Jesus,
begotten as God's Son;
true light, true God eternal,
God's own, yet with God one.
2. For us and our salvation,
Christ deigned to dwell on earth,
incarnate by God's Spirit,
of Mary claimed his birth.
As flesh he lived among us,
by us was crucified;
in our contempt we scorned him,
yet for our sins he died.
3. The stone held no dominion:
three days within the grave,
Christ rose from death triumphant,
to ransom and to save.
At God's right hand in glory,
Christ reigns with justice sure;
by righteousness and mercy,
God's kingdom shall endure.
4. And in the Holy Spirit,
with confidence we live,
who with Christ and Creator
new life to all does give.
One Church, one sign of blessing,
and peace amid the strife,
forgiv'n, in death victorious,
crowned with eternal life.
