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

Behold a Broken World

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Behold a broken world, we pray, where want and war increase, and grant us, Lord, in this our day, the ancient dream of peace: 2 a dream of swords to sickles bent, of spears to scythe and spade, the weapons of our warfare spent, a world of peace remade; 3 where ev'ry battle flag is furled and ev'ry trumpet stilled, where wars shall cease in all the world, a waking dream fulfilled. 4 No force of arms shall there prevail nor justice cease its sway; nor shall their loftiest visions fail the dreamers of the day. 5 O Prince of peace, who died to save, a lost world to redeem, and rose in triumph from the grave, behold our waking dream. 6 Bring, Lord, your better world to birth, your kingdom, love's domain; where peace with God, and peace on earth, and peace eternal reign.
