We love thy holy temple, Lord,
For there thou deign'st to dwell;
And there the heralds of thy word
Of all thy mercies tell.
There, in thy pure and cleansing fount
Washed from each guilty stain,
Our souls on wings of faith shall mount
To heaven's eternal fane.
Around thine altar will we kneel
In penitence sincere,
A Saviour's mercy deeply feel,
And words of pardon hear;
Or, mingling with the choral throng,
Our joyful voices raise,
And pour the full, melodious song,
In notes of grateful praise.
