Lord of all, make this a temple of your presence.
Draw us to you, to rejoice and give you praise.
Make us one with you and one another,
finding comfort in the prayers that we raise.

In this place we will know God’s love,
speaking to our hearts, guiding from above.
In this place we will feel God’s hand,
and the presence of those we love
as we stand in this place.

We give thanks for the gifts of all your children,
gathered here in the presence of your wing.
Bless the works and the prayers of your children.
With one voice unto ages all will sing:

In this place we will know God’s love,
speaking to our hearts, guiding from above.
In this place we will feel God’s hand,
and the presence of those we love
as we stand in this place.
