Cornerstone Campaign Collect

Contemporary Language

Lord Jesus Christ, you are our Cornerstone; on you alone we build. May we, the members of the household of God, ever improve upon the foundation you have laid, in both word and deed. In all our efforts, and especially in this Cornerstone Campaign, may your blessing always be upon us. Move our hearts to build up your church in this place, until at last we find our eternal dwelling with you; who, with the Father and the Holy Spirit, you live and reign, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

Traditional Language

O Lord Jesus Christ, who art our Cornerstone, upon whom alone we do build: Grant that we may ever improve upon the foundation thou alone hast laid, both by word and by deed. In all our endeavours, and especially in the Cornerstone Campaign, may thy blessing ever be upon us. We beseech thee to move our hearts, that we may edify this thy tabernacle, that at the last day, we might find our eternal dwelling-place in Heaven, where, together with the Father and the Holy Ghost, thou livest and reignest, one God, world without end. Amen.
