8279. O Father, Take The New-Built Shrine

1 O Father, take the new-built shrine;
The house our hands have reared is Thine;
Greet us with welcome when we come,
And make our Father’s house our home.

2 Blest with Thy Spirit while we stay,
May we Thy Spirit bear away,
That every heart a shrine may be,
And every home a home for Thee.
