God of Thunder and the Lightning

God of thun­der and the light­ning

Clothed in ma­jes­ty di­vine

To Thy feet we bring this tri­bute;

Lord

ac­cept this house as Thine.

To Thy name

O Lord Je­ho­vah

We this tem­ple de­di­cate;

Lord re­ceive this hum­ble tri­bute

Sanctify it

ear­ly

late.

Send Thy Spir­it

Lord

from Heav­en

Consecrate its sac­red halls;

Let Thy ev­er bid­ing pre­sence

Dwell with­in these hum­ble walls.

Here may thou­sands hear Thy Gos­pel

Preached in love and pow­er di­vine

While the glit­ter­ing choirs of Heav­en

Swell Thy up­per courts sub­lime.

Here may sin­ners be con­vert­ed

While we sing our Sav­ior’s praise;

May the deaf

the halt

the blind­ed

Here their Eb­en­ez­er raise.

Now to God

the King im­mor­tal

Who re­veals Him­self to men

Be the praise and glo­ry giv­en

While the an­gels shout

Amen.
