| 1 How blessed is this place, O Lord, Where Thou art worshiped and adored; Our faith would here an altar raise To Thy great glory, God of praise! 2 Here let Thy sacred fire of old Descend to kindle spirits cold; And may our prayers, when here we bend, Like incense sweet to Thee ascend. 3 Here let the weary one find rest, The aching heart a comfort blest, The guilty soul a sure retreat, The sinner pardon at Thy feet. 4 Here gather us around Thy board To keep the feast with Thee, dear Lord, And when in faith our souls draw near, May we discern thy presence here. 5 And when these earthly Sabbaths cease, O may our souls depart in peace, Around Thy glorious throne to meet, And find it, Lord, a mercy-seat! | The Hymnal and Order of Service #581 (1937) The Hymnal and Order of Service #581 (1926) The Cyber Hymnal #15427 American Lutheran Hymnal #513 (1930) |
