Lyrics
-
1. This house we dedicate to thee,Our God, our fathers' God.Wilt thou accept and deign to blessThe path our feet have trod?
-
2. Wilt thou thy servants here inspireWhen in thy name they speak?And wilt thou bless each contrite soulWho here thy face doth seek?
-
3. Here may our sons and daughters comeAnd find that peace which swellsFrom grateful hearts, when touched by thee,Wherein thy Spirit dwells!
