-Glorious and Powerful God,<br>
-We understand thy dwelling is on high<br>
-Above the starry sky.
-Thou dwellest not in stone temples made with hand;<br>
-But in the flesh hearts of the sons of men to dwell is thy delight,<br>
-Near hand, though out of sight.
-We give of thine own hand,<br>
-Thy acceptation is very life and blood,<br>
-To all actions good.
-Whenever here or hence our supplication, from pure and with unfeigned hearts,<br>
-To thee ascends, be present with thy grace,<br>
-Shew us thy loving face.
-O! Down on us full showers of mercy send;<br>
-Let thy love’s burning beams<br>
-Dry up all our sin’s streams.
-Arise, O Lord,<br>
-And come into thy rest.<br>
-Both now and evermore Thy name be blest,
-Founder<br>
-And foundation<br>
-Of endless habitation.
