'Sing to the Lord above' (hymn) written by Philip Doddridge

Sing to the Lord above,

Who deigns on earth to raise

A temple of his love,

A monument to praise:

Ye saints around, thro' all its frame,

Harmonious sound the builder's name.


Beneath his eye and care

The edifice shall rise

Majestic strong and fair,

And shine above the skies:

There shall he place the polish'd stone

Ordain'd the work of grace to crown.
