For God’s building work today;
If these stones would builded be
All the priests must learn to pray.
In the spirit touch the throne,
Let the Lord flow thru in prayer,
Thus the building work is done.
That the living stones they be;
Each must priestly work perform,
Then their functions we will see.
Always did together go;
When the priests served in the tent,
Into one the two did flow.
And the priesthood all are one;
Now the building of the house
By the priestly work is done.
Of the building work replete;
When the priests their work discharge,
Then God’s house will be complete.
Is their work before the Lord;
In this fellowship divine
Saints are built in one accord.
Then together built are we,
Then a priesthood we become,
Off’ring sacrifice to Thee.
Treasure dear the priestly call;
In the spirit serve and pray,
That Thy church be built withal.
