Words & Music by Beth A. Schafer © 2005
In this house beats the heart of a family
In this house is the center of a community
We study and we pray, find meaning in each day
In this house, in this house, in this house
In this house is a spark of God's creation
In this house there is joy and celebration
By song or by word, your prayers will be heard
In this house, in this house, in this house
CHORUS
In this house, in this house, it all comes together in this house
In this house, in this house, it all comes together in this house of God
In this house we can shelter, we can clothe and feed
In this house there is always help for those in need
A stranger makes a friend, becomes inspired again
In this house, in this house, in this house
CHORUS
A house of study (in this house), a house of prayer (in this house)
A house of gathering (in this house), from everywhere (in this house)
How lovely (in this house) is your dwelling place, 0 Jacob (in this house)
Blessing (in this house) upon blessing fills these walls (in this house)
CHORUS
