LyicsLORD of hosts, to thee we raise
Here a house of prayer and praise;
Thou thy people's hearts prepare,
Here to meet for praise and prayer.
Let the living here be fed
With thy word, the heavenly bread;
Here, in hope of glory blest,
May the dead be laid to rest.
Here to thee a temple stand,
While the sea shall gird the land;
Here reveal thy mercy sure,
While the sun and moon endure.
Hallelujah!--earth and sky,
To the joyful sound reply;
Hallelujah!--hence ascend
Prayer and praise till time shall end.
HALLELUJAH.
Hallelujah! Praise the Lord:
Praise the Father--Praise the Word:
Ever may their fame extend--
Never may their praises end.
