Christ my Cornerstone.

 **"CHRIST MY CORNERSTONE"**  

*A Hymn of Sure Foundation*  


---


### **1. REJECTED STONE, NOW HEAD (Psalm 118:22, Acts 4:11)**  

*"The Builders tossed You aside—*  

*Too rough for their temples,*  

*Too wild for their blueprints.*  

*Yet God chose the Stone man refused*  

*To crown His eternal house!"*  


---


### **2. PERFECT ALIGNMENT (Isaiah 28:16, 1 Peter 2:6)**  

*"No shifting sand, no crooked line—*  

*Your justice the plumb line,*  

*Your grace the level.*  

*All my life’s architecture*  

*Now rests on Your square and true."*  


---


### **3. STORM-PROOF ANCHOR (Matthew 7:24-25, Isaiah 33:6)**  

*"When winds scream and foundations crack,*  

*Your grip holds firm—*  

*No tremor shakes the Rock of Ages.*  

*Let floods come, let earth quake—*  

*My Cornerstone outlasts them all."*  


---


### **4. LIVING TEMPLE (Ephesians 2:20-22, 1 Corinthians 3:11)**  

*"Not cold marble, but warm flesh—*  

*You join us together,*  

*Stone upon living stone.*  

*The mortar? Your blood.*  

*The capstone? Your return."*  


---


### **5. STUMBLING BLOCK TO PRIDE (1 Corinthians 1:23, Romans 9:33)**  

*"The wise trip on Your simplicity,*  

*The strong falter at Your weakness.*  

*Only beggars and children*  

*See the beauty of a Cornerstone*  

*Washed in sacrificial dust."*  


---


**SCRIPTURAL FOUNDATIONS:**  

- **Zechariah 10:4** (The cornerstone from Judah)  

- **Job 38:4-6** (God’s original cornerstone at creation)  

- **Luke 20:17-18** (Stone that crushes rebellion)  


**WORSHIP RESPONSE:**  

*"All other ground is sinking sand—*  

*But You, my Cornerstone, endure!*  

*Build me into Your holy temple,*  

*Till the day I see You*  

*Face to face in the New Jerusalem."*

This is the Stone that breathes—let’s keep digging deeper! ⚒️✨
