HOW AMIABLE ARE THY TABERNACLES

Thou, whose unmeasured temple stands,

Built over earth and sea,

Accept the walls that human hands

Have raised, O God! to thee.

And let the Comforter and Friend,

Thy Holy Spirit, meet

With those who here in worship bend

Before thy mercy seat.

May they who err be guided here

To find the better way,

And they who mourn and they who fear

Be strengthened as they pray.

May faith grow firm, and love grow warm,

And hallowed wishes rise,

While round these peaceful walls the storm

Of earth-born passion dies.
