Lyrics

Unto thy temple, Lord, we come

with thankful hearts to worship thee;

and pray that this may be our home

until we touch eternity:

The common home of rich and poor,

of bond and free, and great and small;

large as thy love forever more,

and warm and bright and good to all.

May thy whole truth be spoken here;

thy gospel light forever shine;

thy perfect love cast out all fear,

and human life become divine.
