Oh, hallowed is the land and blest,
Where Christ, the Ruler, is confessed!
Oh, happy hearts and happy homes,
To whom the great Redeemer comes!
Lift up your heads, ye mighty gates!
Behold, the King of glory waits:
The King of kings is drawing near;
The Saviour of the world is here.
Fling wide the Portals of your heart:
Make it a temple set apart
From earthly use for heaven's employ,
Adorned with prayer, and love, and joy.
Redeemer, come! I open wide
My soul to thee; here, Lord, abide!
Thankful and glad my song I raise,
And give to thee a life of praise.
