Lord, in this sac­red hour,
Naught to plead in sin’s de­fense,
start
And earth, with her ten thou­sand tongues,
One day ex­cels a thou­sand,
How lovely is Thy dwelling place!
While far from Thine ab­ode;
My feet the sum­mons shall at­tend,
Shall come, Thy glo­ry, Lord, to see,
Again our earth­ly cares we leave
God, thy mak­er, loves thee well;
So shall Thy chos­en sons re­joice,

Thy courts

We sing in hal­lowed lays
And bless Thy love, and own Thy pow­er,
Jesus, do not drive me thence.
In the land of light and love;
Shall fill Thy courts with sound­ing praise.
I’ll chose Thy thresh­old ra­ther
Thy presence, Lord, my spirit craves,
My Sav­ior and my God?
And tread the sac­red floor.
O light of Zi­on, now arise!
Again with joy­ful feet we come,
He de­lights in thee to dwell.
While sin­ners hear Thy par­don­ing voice,
