- CCXL To Thy Temple I Repair;
CCXL To Thy temple I repair;
LORD, I love to worship there,
When, within the veil, I meet
CHRIST before the mercy-seat.
Thou, through Him, art reconciled;
I, through Him, became Thy child;
Abba! Father! give me grace
In Thy courts to seek Thy face!
While Thy glorious praise is sung,
Touch my lips, unloose my tongue;
Hear me, for Thy SPIRIT pleads;
Hear, for JESUS intercedes!
From Thy house when I return,
May my heart within me burn;
And at evening let me say,
-- I have walk'd with GOD to-day!
