Lyrics

Enter and worship here,
The Bride invites thee—Come;
The Spirit bids thee cast out fear,
And make the Church thy home.

Enter and bless the Lord,
And meditate His grace;
Feast on the manna of His Word,
And consecrate this place.

Enter and rest and pray,
Lift to the hills thine eyes;
Praise Him, and offer up today
Thy heart, a sacrifice.
