Author: Robert Collyer (1823-1912) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #303 (1998) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Unto thy temple, Lord, we come
with thankful heats 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 for evermore,
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 for ever shine;
thy perfect love cast out all fear,
and human life become divine. Topics: Aniversary of Parish/Church; Gathering of the Community; Sunday Scripture: 1 Kings 8:22-30 Languages: English Tune Title: ROCKINGHAM
