response reading 109. Church Dedication
You who minister in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God. Praise the LORD.
for the LORD is good; sing praise to his name, for that is pleasant.
I have built a magnificient temple for you, a place for you to dwell forever.
"Let us go to his dwelling place; let us worship at his footstool
Lift up your heads, O you gates; be lifted up, you ancient doors,
that the King of glory may come in.
Yet give attention to your servant's prayer and his plea for mercy, O LORD my God.
Hear the cry and the prayer that your servant is praying in your presence.
These I will bring to my holy mountain
and give them joy in my house of prayer.
Their burnt offerings and sacrifices will be accepted on my altar
for my house will be called a house of prayer for all nations
But the LORD is in his holy temple; let all the earth be silent before him
