An original hymn with text by Mark Fotheringham below.  Watch on YouTube: Temple Blessings

Here in the temple of our Lord,

Let thy heart sing a glorious chord.

Here in His house, though reverence resounds,

Truth can be heard as His pure love abounds.

Confusion reigns outside the gate.

Men strive for gain in anger and hate.

Within these walls protected are we

From worldly care, and all adversity.

Built in the midst of Babylon,

This holy place still carries us on.

Lifting our hearts with hope from above,

Here is our refuge filled with peace and love.

As we return from temple doors,

Laden with gifts from heavenly stores,

Give us the strength to brighten the world,

With Zion's banner, proud and true, unfurled.
