O, let us exalt our dear Lord and proclaim,
In songs of true gratitude, praise to His name!
As songs of the angels in sweetest accord,
Our thanks and our praises shall rise to the Lord.

Lyrics
I, and my house, we are prepared,
As long as to us life is shared
To serve Thee, Lord, sincerely.
Thou shalt be Master of the house,
Who with His blessing us endows
And may we love Thee dearly
Bless all,
Though small
As Thy lowly,
Pure and holy
Congregation
To Thy great name's adoration.

May Thy good Spirit further, Lord,
Work in us through Thy mighty Word,
And guide our souls forever!
O may it shine forth clear and bright,
That in our house the one true Light
May there be lacking never!
Lord, now
Bestow
Food from heaven,
Morn and even,
While we're living
And ourselves to Thee are giving.

Give to our house the peace within,
And to all who abide therein,
In love bind us together.
That we may be prepared alway
To bear and to endure, we pray
In humbleness forever.
Each soul
Fulfill
Love's sweet measure
With great pleasure,
Thereby showing
Pleasing fruits from tearful sowing.

O, let our house be built on stone,
Upon Thy holy truth alone,
That we may never waver,
And even when the days are dark
May we Thy holy footsteps mark
And follow Thee, O Saviour!
In Thee
Have we,
E'en in sadness
Lasting gladness
In rich measure,
For Thou givest heav'nly pleasure.

And finally 'bove all we pray
That in this house no spirit stay
But only Thine own Spirit;
Our conduct here to regulate,
And perfect order to instate,
In holy, Godlike manner.
Amen!
Amen!
Come draw near us,
Sun of clearness,
Truthful witness,
Shine in heart and soul with clearness.
