Author: Lida Shivers Leech Hymnal: Jubilate #141 (1917) First Line: To worship in Thy temple, Lord Lyrics: 1 To worship in Thy temple, Lord, We come, we come; To learn more of thy holy word, We come, we come; And while we gather here today, O meet with us we pray. Refrain: We come to learn of Thee, Thy follow’rs e’er to be, O may we strive to be, Dear Saviour more like Thee; We come to learn of Thee, Thy follow’rs e’er to be, O may we e’er be faithful ‘til Thy face we see. 2 To sing sweet songs of love and praise, We come, we come; To Him who fills with joy our days, We come, we come; Then all united let us sing, And make His temple ring. [Refrain] 3 To tell the story of His love, We come, we come; To praise His name who reigns above, We come, we come; Then let us sound the gospel call, And “crown Him Lord of all.” [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [To worship in Thy temple, Lord]
