The Completing of the Spiritual Temple

Verse 1

Sing to the Lord above, Who deigns on earth to raise A temple of his love, A monument to praise: Ye saints around, thro' all its frame, Harmonious sound the builder's name.

Verse 2

Beneath his eye and care The edifice shall rise Majestic strong and fair, And shine above the skies: There shall he place the polish'd stone Ordain'd the work of grace to crown.
