This House We Dedicate to Thee

 


Lyrics

  1. 1. This house we dedicate to thee,

    Our God, our fathers’ God.

    Wilt thou accept and deign to bless

    The path our feet have trod?

  2. 2. Wilt thou thy servants here inspire

    When in thy name they speak?

    And wilt thou bless each contrite soul

    Who here thy face doth seek?

  3. 3. Here may our sons and daughters come

    And find that peace which swells

    From grateful hearts, when touched by thee,

    Wherein thy Spirit dwells!
