Lord, Thou hast known our joy, Building for Thine employ This house of prayer; As we Thy help have sought, With labor long have wrought, Our willing offerings brought, This work to share. 2. Now as we give it Thee Thine evermore to be, Who givest all, Come, Thou, O Lord divine, Make this Thy holy shrine Where Thy pure light may shine; O hear our call! 3. May this new temple prove True witness to Thy love, To all men free; May all who seek this door, And saving grace implore, Love one another more As they seek Thee. 4. O Christ, the Church’s head, Who for us all hast bled That we might live, Thy cross we lift on high This house to glorify; On Thee our hearts rely Thy power to give. 5. Lord, though these hours of praise, And all our earthly days Will soon be o’er, Still may these courts proclaim The glory of Thy name, O Thou, who art the same Forevermore!
