God is in His holy temple:

Thoughts of earth, be silent now,

While with reverence we assemble,

And before His presence bow.

He is with us now and ever,

When we call upon His name,

Aiding every good endeavor,

Guiding every upward aim.

God is in His holy temple;—

In the pure and holy mind;

In the reverent heart and simple;

In the soul from sense refined:

Then let every low emotion

Banished far and silent be!

And our souls, in pure devotion,

Lord, be temples worthy Thee!
