Author: Anon. Hymnal: Christ in Song #422 (1908) Topics: Special Occasions Dedication of Church; Special Occasions Dedication of Church First Line: All things are thine: no gift have we Lyrics: 1 All things are thine; no gift have we,
Lord of all gifts! to offer thee;
And hence, with grateful hearts to-day,
Thine own, before thy feet we lay.
2 Thy will was in the builders' tho't;
Thy hand unseen amidst us wrought;
Thro' mortal motive, scheme, and plan,
Thy wise, eternal purpose ran.
3 No lack thy perfect fulness knew;
For human needs and longings grew
This house of prayer this home of rest
Here may thy saints be often blest.
4 O Father! deign these walls to bless,
Make this th' abode of righteousness,
And let these doors a gateway be
To lead us from ourselves to thee.
