To Thee this temple we devote

Author: Jacob R. Scott Appears in 46 hymnals Lyrics: 1 To Thee this temple we devote, Our Father and our God; Accept it Thine, and seal it now Thy Spirit's blest abode. 2 Here may the prayer of faith ascend, The voice of praise arise; Oh, may each lowly service prove Accepted sacrifice. 3 Here may the sinner learn his guilt, And weep before his Lord; Here, pardoned, sing a Saviour's love, And here his vows record. 4 Here may affliction dry the tear, And learn to trust in God; Convinced it is a Father smites, And love that guides the rod. 5 Peace be within these sacred walls, Prosperity be here, Still smile upon Thy people, Lord, And evermore be near. Amen. Topics: Churches Dedication Used With Tune: STEPHENS

With joy we meditate the grace

Author: William Jones, 1726-1800 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 423 hymnals Lyrics: 1 With joy we meditate the grace of our High Priest above; his heart is made of tenderness, and ever yearns with love. 2 Touched with a sympathy within, he knows our feeble frame; he knows what sore temptations mean for he has felt the same. 3 He in the days of feeble flesh poured out his cries and tears; and, in his measure, feels afresh what every member bears. 4 He'll never quench the smoking flax, but raise it to a flame; the bruisèd reed he never breaks, nor scorns the meanest name. 5 Then let our humble faith address his mercy and his power: we shall obtain delivering grace in every needful hour.

The Lord will come and not be slow

Author: John Milton, 1608-1674 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 101 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The Lord will come and not be slow, his footsteps cannot err; before him righteousness shall go, his royal harbinger. 2 Truth from the earth, like to a flower, shall bud and blossom then; and justice, from her heavenly bower, look down on mortal men. 3 Rise, God, judge thou the earth in might, this wicked earth redress; for thou art he who shalt by right the nations all possess. 4 The nations all whom thou hast made shall come, and all shall frame to bow them low before thee, Lord, and glorify thy name. 5 For great thou art, and wonders great by thy strong hand are done: thou in thy everlasting seat remainest God alone.
