1 Within thy courts, O lord,
We sing in hallowed lays
The wonders of thy majesty,
The glory of thy praise.

Chorus:
Within thy courts,
O Lord of Hosts,
We sing the goodness of thy grace,
And praise thy wondrous love.

2 The high and lofty heav'ns
Are thine eternal place,
But ev'ry lowly, contrite heart,
Thou visitest with grace. [Chorus]

3 Thy Kingdom is within
The life that lives for thee,
Thy temple is within the heart
That kept in purity. [Chorus]
