12s.

The house of the Lord.

You may sing of the beauty of mountain and dale,

Of the silvery streamlets and flowers of the vale;

But the place most delightful this earth can afford,

Is the place of devotion, the house of the Lord.

2 You may boast of the sweetness of day’s early dawn,

Of the sky’s softening graces when day is just gone;

But there’s no other season or time can compare,

With the hour of devotion, the season of prayer.
