Here Within This House of Prayer

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Hymnal: Celebrating Grace Hymnal #535 (2010) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Here within this house of prayer all our Father's love declare; love that gave us birth and planned days and years beneath His hand: praise to God whose love and power bring us to this present hour! 2 Here, till earthly praises end, tell of Christ the sinner's friend; Christ whose blood for us was shed, Lamb of God and living bread, life divine and truth and way, light of everlasting day. 3 Here may all our faint desire feel the Spirit's wind and fire souls that sleep the sleep of death stir to life beneath His breath: may His power upon us poured send us out to serve the Lord! 4 Here may faith and love increase, flowing forth in joy and peace from the Father, Spirit, Son, undivided, Three in One: His the glory all our days in this house of prayer and praise!
