Excerpt from Discourse Delivered at the Dedication of the First Presbyterian Church in the City of Cincinnati: September 21st, A. D. 1851
WE are met to-day under circumstances of no ordinary interest. God has accomplished for us the desire of our hearts. We have been permitted to build this house to his name. He has heard our prayers, he has prospered the work of our hands upon us, and now we are all here before him, to present as a thank-offering that which our hands have wrought, and ourselves anew to devote as living sacri fices to his service. It is a season for rejoicing, and me thinks each heart, bounding with joy at these tokens of divine favor, is ready to cry out responsive to the holy singer in Israel, The Lord hath done great things for us, whereof we are glad. We will go into his tabernacles; we will worship at his footstool. Praise ye the Lord, Praise ye the name of the Lord praise ye him, 0 ye servants of the Lord. Ye that stand in the house of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God, Praise the Lord; for the Lord is good; sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant.
