How lovely is thy dwelling-place

Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #P84b (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 How lovely is thy dwelling-place, O Lord of hosts, to me! The tabernacles of thy grace how pleasant, Lord, they be! 2 My thirsty soul longs veh’mently, yea faints, thy courts to see; my very heart and flesh cry out, O living God, for thee. 3 Behold, the sparrow findeth out an house wherein to rest; the swallow also for herself provided hath a nest; even thine own altars, where she safe her young ones forth may bring, O thou almighty Lord of hosts, who art my God and King. 4 Blest are they in thy house that dwell, they ever give thee praise. 5 Blest is the man whose strength thou art, in whose heart are thy ways: 6 who as they pass through Baca’s vale, make it a place of springs, also the rain that falleth down rich blessing to it brings. 7 So they from strength unwearied go still forward unto strength, until in Zion they appear before the Lord at length. 8 Lord God of hosts, my prayer hear; O Jacob’s God, give ear. 9 See, God our shield, look on the face of thine anointed dear. 10 For in thy courts one day excels a thousand; rather in my God’s house will I keep a door, than dwell in tents of sin. 11 For God the Lord’s a sun and shield: he’ll grace and glory give; and will withhold no good from them that uprightly do live. 12 O thou that art the Lord of hosts, that man is truly blest, who with assured confidence on thee alone doth rest.
