1.  I was glad when they said unto me,
     “Let us go to the house of the Lord”,
     This one thing doth my soul delight to see,
     To behold the sweet beauty of God.

                 CHORUS

    Let us go...to the house of the Lord,
    And adore...Him, O, saints...great and small;
    Lift your voice, praise Him with one accord,
    For the great things He hath done for all.

2.  He hath made me a green olive tree,
     Planted within the house of the Lord,
     Rooted deep in His love from sin set free,
     I rejoice in His unfailing Word.

3.  Such a High Priest so harmless and true,
     Tempted like as we are in the world,
     Is awaiting to cleanse us and renew
     All the saints who are bought by His blood.

4.  I had rather a doorkeeper be,
     In His house, than in mansions impure ;
     For no good thing will He withhold from me,
     And His kingdom shall ever endure.
 
5.  Let all saints gather within the veil,
     To adore Him in spirit and truth,
     He will quicken your heart and spirit frail,
     With His glorious presence and strength.

6.  We are saints of the household in Heav’n,
     Built upon the foundation of truth,
     Jesus Christ is the true chief Corner Stone,
     Laid in Zion whence His glory shines forth.
