Lord of Creation, merciful and mighty,
hear now thy servants when their joyful voices
rise to thy presence.

light in our blindness, in our toil refreshment:
sin is forgiven, hope o'er fear prevaileth,
joy over sorrow.
3 Hallowed this dwelling where the Lord abideth;
this is none other than the gate of heaven;
strangers and pilgrims seeking homes eternal,
pass through its portals.
4 Lord, we beseech thee, as we throng thy temple,
by thy past blessings, by thy present bounty,
smile on thy children, and with tender mercy
hear our petitions.
5 God in three persons, Father everlasting,
Son co-eternal, ever-blessèd Spirit,
thine be the glory, praise, and adoration,
now and for ever.

O Jesus, fra det Høie
Author: Ludv. M. Bjørn Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: 1 Kings 8:15-62 Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, fra det Høie
Hid vende du dit Fjed,
Lad Naade for dit Øie
Ske vort Forsamlingsted.
O, Herre, kom at tage
Dit Sæde i vor Kreds,
Da krones vore Dage,
Da er vi fuldt tilfreds.
2 Ei Sten paa Sten der findes
Af Zions Tempels Pragt,
Ak, vel vi alle mindes
Hin Naadetids Foragt!
Ak, du vort Hjerte drage
ved Ordets tille Magt,
At aldrig vi skal tabe
Vor Daabes dyre Pagt!
3 O Herre, vær vor Styrke,
Led os paa rette Sti,
Lær os dig ret at dyrke,
lad Trængsel gaa forbi.
Her ved dit Huses Tærskel,
Der slaa vi os til Ro,
Herfra til Livets Færdsel
Gaa vi med styrket Tro!
4 Mit Hjerte, det skal sjunge
Til Herrens Miskunds Pirs,
Min Røst skal høres runge
Til Herrens paradis!
Thi Ynk for os sig rørte
I Herrens milde Sind;
Fra fremmed Sti han førte
Os til Gudsfolket ind!
5 Se, Porten nu er aaben,
O Brødre, Søstre kom!
Ak, hører Jesu naaden
Fra Himlens Helligdom;
Ei Nogen staa tilbage,
Men fly fra VredensDom,
Du Stærke, støt den Svage,
Og begge sammen kom!
6 Med Lov og Tak vi mindes,
Du Frelser, for os bad,
At Intet maatte findes,
Som skiller Hjerter ad!
Kom, Haand i Haand vi vandre
Den store Pilgrimsgang,
Indtil vi med hverandre
Istemme Lammets Sang.
7 O, snart, o snart han kommer,
Vor Sjæles Brudgom hid
Og gjør en liflig Sommer,
Af al vor Nød og Strid.
Med Jubel vi da ile
Ad Perleporten skjøn,
Hos Gud vi finde Hvile
I Huset hos hans Søn!
