27. Unto Thy Temple

1 Unto Thy temple, Lord, we come
With thankful hearts to worship Thee;
And pray that this may be our home
Until we touch eternity;

2 The common home of rich and poor,
Of bond and free, and great and small;
Large as Thy love forevermore,
And warm and bright and good to all.

3 And dwell Thou with us in this place,
Thou and Thy Christ, to guide and bless.
Here make the well-springs of Thy grace
Like fountains in the wilderness.

4 May Thy whole truth be spoken here;
Thy gospel light forever shine;
Thy perfect love cast out all fear,
And human life become divine.

Amen.
