We Lay Down This Foundation, Lord

"That Thine eyes may be open toward this house night and day." - 1 Kings 8:29

BUILDING AND DEDICATION• 6 VERSES

VERSE 1

We lay down this foundation, Lord
In Thy name, Our Lord Jesus Christ,
We beseech Thee our dear Saviour
Keep this holy place in Thy care.

And when these Thy people seek Thee,
And sinners seek Thee in this house
Hear, Almighty from heav'n above
O Lord our God, forgive their sins.

When Thy ministers preach the Word
The gospel of Jesus Thy Son,
Almighty God, in Thy great name
Wrought our wonderful miracles.

And when the little children sing
Their hymns of praise unto their king
Let angels join them in His praise
And earth and heav'n lend their chorus.

Jehovah will Thou dwell with us
In this our wicked, sinful world?
Jesus Christ will Thou be our King?
Holy Ghost will Thou find rest here?

May Thy glory never depart
From this house that we are building,
Make thy kingdom within our hearts
And establish Thy throne within.
