“Since then, brethren and friends, the God of all grace, as we humbly trust, condescends to place his name here, let us write ours in some humble place beneath it; and while from this house he calls to us, ‘Seek ye my face,’ let each of us answer, ‘Thy face, Lord, will I seek.’ Thus let the promises of God, and the vows of his people here meet in their fulfilment, until the promises shall have gained their merciful object, and the vows their joyful reward; and then may a blissful and unfading remembrance of many happy days spent amid the satisfying goodness of this temple, delight the soul of every worshipper forever.” — John W. Yeomans, A Sermon Delivered to the Presbyterian Congregation of Trenton, N. J., at the Dedication of their New House of Worship, January 19, 1840 (1840), pp. 35-36
