    Lyrics:

    Holy temple; hallowed walls; filled with heaven's light
    Where the Spirit teaches truth and testifies of Christ
    There within that holy place our hearts are made as one
    United by the power of God in pure eternal love

    Chorus:
    House of learning; house of faith; house of peace and prayer;
    House of glory; house of God; I’ll feel his presence there
    I will stand with heart and hands kept clean and pure each day
    Worthy of the blessings found in that holy place

    Holy temple where we learn creation's grand design
    Where our souls will be endowed with power from on high
    There we kneel, our hearts prepared, to cov'nant with our Lord
    And there his Spirit binds our lives in love forever more

    (Repeat Chorus)

    Holy temple where we bless our loved ones gone before
    Where eternal ties are sealed by sacred priesthood pow'r
    There we turn our hearts to those who gave us life and birth
    How beautiful that holy place where heaven dwells on earth

    (Repeat Chorus)
