This House We Dedicate to Thee

1. This house we dedicate to thee,Our God, our fathers’ God.Wilt thou accept and deign to blessThe path our feet have trod?

2. Wilt thou thy servants here inspireWhen in thy name they speak?And wilt thou bless each contrite soulWho here thy face doth seek?

3. Here may our sons and daughters comeAnd find that peace which swellsFrom grateful hearts, when touched by thee,Wherein thy Spirit dwells!
