Come into the house of the Lord
Come into the house of the Lord
There's love overflowing
A joy that you'd be knowing
When you come into the house of the Lord
Come into the house of the Lord

I got a friend named Jesus
He's everything, yes indeed
In your darkest hour
You can call upon His power
'Cause He knows everything you need
Every little thing you need

You don't have to preach like John the Baptist
Prophesied like Apostle Paul
If you just step inside, Jesus will provide
Love and salvation for us all
Love and salvation for us all

Come into the house of the Lord
Come into the house of the Lord
There's love overflowing
A joy that you'd be knowing
When you come into the house of the Lord
Come into the house of the Lord

I was adrift out in a desert
I led a shameful life of sin
But in my dissipation, I had a revelation
A Deacon took my hand and led me in
That's when my redemption did begin

Come into the house of the Lord
Come into the house of the Lord
No one will be denied, no prayer will be ignored
When you come into the house of the Lord
Come into the house of the Lord

Come into the house of the Lord
Come into the house of the Lord
I laid my burden down, put on my robe and crown
When I come into the house of the Lord
Come into the house of the Lord
