One thing I ask of the Lord This is what I seek That I may dwell in the house of the Lord All the days of my life To gaze upon the beauty of the Lord And to seek Him in His temple For this reason I kneel before the Father From whom every family in heaven And on earth derives its name I pray that out of his glorious riches He may strengthen you with power Through his Spirit in your inner being So that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love May have power, together with all God's people To grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ And to know this love that surpasses knowledge That you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God Now to Him who is able to keep you from falling And to present you before his glorious presence Without fault and with great joy To the only God our Saviour Be glory and majesty and power and authority Through Jesus Christ our Lord Before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen
