In sweet exalted strains

Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #CLXIV (1816) Topics: Consecrating of a Church Lyrics: 1 In sweet exalted strains The King of glory praise; O'er heaven and earth he reigns, Through everlasting days; He with a nod the world controls, Sustains or sinks the distant poles. 2 To earth he bends his throne; His throne of grace divine; Wide is his bounty known, And wide his glories shine: Fair Salem, still his chosen rest, Is with his smiles and presence blest. 3 Then King of Glory, come And with thy favour crown This temple as thy dome, This people as thy own; Within this House, O deign to show, How God can dwell with men below. 4 Here, may thine ears attend Our interceding cries, And grateful praise ascend All fragrant to the skies: Here may thy word melodious sound, And spread the joys of heav'n around. 5 Here may th'attentive throng Imbibe thy truth and love, And converts join the song Of Seraphim above: And willing crowds surround thy board, With sacred joy and sweet accord. 6 Here, may our unborn sons And daughters sound thy praise, And shine like polish' stones, Thro' long succeeding days; Here, Lord, display thy saving power, Whilst churches stand, and saints adore.

Is now rebuilt and rais'd again, And to its former state renew'd. 3 Thanks and praise be to the Lord: Whose acts of mercy here are pass'd; This house of pray'r again restor'd, And holy worships now replac'd. 4 Here may the Lord with glory dwell, And all his former work renew, And here make known his gracious will, And grant us grace to serve him too. 5 Here may his blessed word increase, And with its former glory shine; May thousands learn the way of peace, And feel the work of grace divine! 6 The Lord with grace and mercy crown, His Zion with his aid and pow'r! And raise her walls when they are down; And build his church for evermore. Languages: English

With reverence and holy fear

Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #CLXIII (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Consecrating of a Church Lyrics: 1 With reverence and holy fear, Let christian worshippers draw near, And consecrate this house to be! The Lord's abode and sanctuary. 2 Here let them meet, to hear and pray, And seek the Lord, our life and way; O may it be a place to find: A Salem, for the seeking mind. 3 Here may they build each other up, In charity, and faith, and hope; Until they taste, and feel, and know: That Jesus dwells with Saints below. 4 Here may the gospel glory shine, And fill each soul with grace divine; God's holy word, and means of grace, Be always used in this place. 5 Since Jesus is the great high priest, Who always makes his people blest, When they approach within the vail, What joys and comforts shall they feel. 6 What glories shall they there behold! More precious than the choicest gold; A glimps of the bless'd Saviour's throne! A heav'n on earth for them begun. Scripture: Revelation 21:2-5 Languages: English
