Lyics

SING to the Lord above,

Who deigns on earth to raise

A temple to his love,

A monument of praise:

You saints around through all its frame,

Harmonious sound the builder's name.



Beneath his eye and care,

The edifice shall rise

Majestic, strong, and fair,

And shine above the skies:

There shall he place the polish'd stone,

Ordain'd the work of grace to crown.
