In Thy House While Now We Sing

1In thy house while now we sing,
Tune our hearts,
O heavenly King;
Then our joyful souls shall bless Thee, the Lord, our righteousness.

2While to thee our prayers ascend,
Let thine ear in love attend;
Hear us; for thy Spirit pleads:
Hear; for Jesus intercedes.

3While we hear thy word with awe,
While we tremble at thy law,
Let thy gospel's wondrous love Every doubt and fear remove.

4From thy house when we return,
Let our hearts within us burn;
That at evening we may say,
We have walked with God today.
