Another Lord's Day

We are going to the house of prayer,
pour upon us the spirit of grace and supplication;
We are going to the house of praise, 
awaken in us every grateful and cheerful emotion;
We are going to the house of instruction, 
give testimony to the Word preached,
and glorify it in the hearts of all who hear; 
may it enlighten the ignorant, awaken the careless,reclaim the wandering, establish the weak, comfort the feeble minded, make ready a people for their Lord.
