Hymns Supplied Through the Gracious Generosity
of the Cyber Hymnal Website
Words: William Cullen Bryant, 1820.
Music: "Dundee," Scottish Psalter, 1615
Thou, Whose unmeasured temple stands,
Built over earth and sea,
Accept these walls that human hands
Have raised, O God, to Thee.
And let the Comforter and Friend,
Thy Holy Spirit, meet,
With those who here in worship bend
Before Thy mercy seat.
May they who err be guided here
To find the better way;
And they who mourn, and they who fear,
Be strengthened as they pray.
May faith grow firm, and love grow warm,
And pure devotion rise,
While round these hallowed walls the storm
Of earth born passion dies.
