Below is the beginning of the Provo Utah Temple dedicatory prayer written by President Joseph Fielding Smith and offered by President Harold B. Lee on February 9, 1972. You can read the full dedicatory prayer on Church News here.
O God, the Eternal Father, the Creator of heaven and earth and all things that in them are; thou Man of Holiness who hast created us thy children in thine own image and likeness and endowed us with power and agency to follow thee; thou who knowest all things and hast all power, all might, and all dominion; thou who created the universe and ruleth with justice and equity and mercy over all the works of thy hands, hallowed be thy great and holy name!
We come before thee in the name of thine Only Begotten Son, even the Son of Man, in whose sacred name thou hast ordained that we shall have access to thee, the Lord; and we plead with thee to pour out thy Holy Spirit upon us as we raise our voices in praise and thanksgiving and seek blessings under thy hands.
We know that thou art our Father and that we are the workmanship of thy hands, the sheep of thy pasture, the saints of thy congregation; and we thank thee for life and being and for the privilege of receiving our mortal probation in a day when thou hast given the fullness of thine everlasting gospel to men on earth.
Our hearts are filled with gratitude that this thy gospel is the plan of salvation for all men, and that thou didst choose thy Beloved and Chosen One to be the Redeemer and Savior and to put into full effect the provisions of thy great plan. We thank thee for the atoning sacrifice of thy Beloved Son; that he came into the world to die upon the cross for the sins of the world; that he has ransomed us from temporal and spiritual death; that by his stripes we are healed. And we covenant before thee to walk in the light of revealed truth so that we may have joyous fellowship one with another and so that the blood of Jesus Christ, thy Son, may cleanse us from all sin.
And so now, with thy grace attending, may we shout praises unto the Holy One of Israel and say: O Jehovah, thou God of our fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; thou who “wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation”; thou who shalt make us “unto our God kings and priests” that we may live with thee a thousand years, thou art "worthy … to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.”
And may we, O God, our Heavenly Father, be numbered everlastingly with that mighty congregation of the righteous which acclaims with one voice: “Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb forever and ever.”
