Author: Anon. Hymnal: Christ in Song #423 (1908) First Line: God of the universe, to thee Lyrics: 1 God of the universe, to thee
These sacred walls we rear;
And now, with songs and bended knee,
Invoke thy presence here.
2 When sad with care, by sin oppressed,
Here may the burdened soul
Beneath thy shelt'ring wing find rest;
Here make the wounded whole.
3 And when the last long Sabbath morn
Upon the just shall rise,
May all who own thee here, be borne
To mansions in the skies. Topics: Special Occasions Dedication of Church; Special Occasions Dedication of Church Languages: English Tune Title: MARLOW
Thy Presence Here
