I will make there an altar unto God.
Gen. 35:3.
Thou sovereign Lord of earth and skies,
Supremely good, supremely wise;
Fix thou the place of our abode;
But may we still live near to God.
2 Where’er our dwelling shall be found,
We will thy throne of grace surround;
An altar to thy name will raise,
With sacrifice of prayer and praise.
3 With faith and with devotion, Lord!
