Windows and doors open and close,
Keeping out and letting in
The dark and the light,
The wrong and the right.
I decide what enters in.
The things that I choose
Determine if I lose All the light
That's within my holy house.
Shadowy voice speaks at my door,
With many dark things to say.
What should I do? The Spirit inside
Tells me I should turn away.
A temple of light
With windows clean and bright
Lights the soul.
That's within my holy house.
Mine is a house of holiness;
It's up to me to keep it clean.
My own temple full of love and light
Where the Spirit stays with me.
I begin to see souls in need
Knocking so gently, hearts to feed.
Should I let them into my life?
Is there room inside for love?
Seeking to help, seeking to care,
Making a welcome place.
With each kind step, love fills the room
Granting the Savior's grace.
A temple of light
With windows clean and bright
Lights the soul
That's within my holy house.
Mine is a house of holiness;
It's up to me to keep it clean.
My own temple full of love and light
Where the Spirit stays with me.
Mine is a house of holiness;
It's up to me to keep it clean.
My own temple full of love and light
Where the Spirit stays with me.
Where the Spirit stays with me.
