438. Within Thy Temple's Sacred Courts

1 Within Thy temple's sacred courts,
With loving and adoring thought,
We contemplate Thy grace, O God,
And all Thy deeds with mercy fraught.

2 Where'er Thy name, O God, is known,
Where' er Thy glorious fame extends,
There also is Thy praise proclaimed,
Far as the earth's remotest ends.

3 This mighty God forever lives
Our God and Saviour to abide,
And till our pilgrim days shall end
Will ever be our faithful guide.

Amen.
