Hymn 697 – IN Thy great name, God Almighty | C&S English Hymnary

1. IN Thy great name, God Almighty We build this house of praise for Thee Choose it for Thy special abode And keep if from all terror safe. 2. When Thy people shall seek Thee here And sinners seek and plead for life Hear us from Thy dwelling on high And when Thou shall, hear, do forgive. 3. When Thy servant shall preach the word The gospel of Jesus Christ here By the power in Thy great name May sign and wonders be perform'd. 4. When infant voices sing their song Hossanah to their king on high May earth and heav‘n join the refrain And all angels sing Hossanah. 5. May Thy glory never depart Yet, keep Thy presence in this house Thy kingdom come to every heart Until Thou be entrhoned on earth. 6. Jah Jehovah our Holy King Unto our weary hearts descend Within our home with us abide Never from us depart our plea AMEN
