We love the place, God,
Wherein thine honour dwells
The joy of thy abode
All other joy excels.
Wherein thine honour dwells
The joy of thy abode
All other joy excels.
We love the house of prayer,
Wherein thy servants meet;
For thou, Lord, art there
Thy chosen ones to greet.

For thou, Lord, art there
Thy chosen ones to greet.
We love the sacred font;
Wherein the holy Dove
Pours out, as he is wont.
The effluence from above.

We love our Father's board,
Its altar steps are dear;
For there, in faith adored,
We find thy presence near.

We love thy saints who come
Thy mercy to proclaim,
To call the wanderers home.
And magnify thy name.

To call the wanderers home.
And magnify thy name.
Our first and latest love
To Zion shall be given,
The house of God above.
On earth the "ate of heaven.

The house of God above.
On earth the "ate of heaven.
