6258. The Soul Wherein God Dwells
1. The soul wherein God dwells—
What church could holier be?
Becomes a walking tent
Of heavenly majesty.
2. Though Christ a thousand times
In Bethlehem be born,
If He’s not born in thee,
Thy soul is still forlorn.
3. O would thy heart but be
A manger for His birth,
God would once more become
A Child upon this earth.
