Humble Habitation

"For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones" (Isaiah 57:15).

Come, enlarge Your dwelling place,
O Lord of our salvation!
Let our hearts be, by Your grace,
Your humble habitation.

O Lord, we marvel at Your love,
That You with us would dwell
To lift us to Your heights above
And rescue us from hell!

Inhabiting eternity,
The high and lofty One,
You left Your throne for Calvary,
To save a world undone.

And though it's hard to take it in,
O Lord, we know it's true
That we who once were lost in sin
Are now indwelt by You!
