My thirsty soul desires and longs within thy courts to be; my very heart and flesh cry out, O living God, for thee. 2 Beside thine altars, gracious Lord, the swallows find a nest; how happy they who dwell with thee and praise thee without rest, and happy they whose hearts are set upon the pilgrims' quest. 3 They who go through the desert vale will find it filled with springs, and they shall climb from height to height till Zion's temple rings with praise to thee, in glory throned, Lord God, great King of kings. 4 One day within thy courts excels a thousand spent away; how happy they who keep thy laws nor from thy precepts stray, for thou shalt surely bless all those who live the words they pray. Optional stanza from Psalm 23: Goodness and mercy all my life shall surely follow me, and in God's house forevermore my dwelling place shall be; and in God's house forevermore my dwelling place shall be.

Glorious Things Of Thee Are Spoken

Author: John Newton Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #85 (1930) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: The Means of Grace The Christian Church Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of thee are spoken, Zion, city of our God; He whose word cannot be broken Formed thee for His own abode; On the Rock of Ages founded, What can shake thy sure repose? With salvation's walls surrounded, Thou may'st smile at all thy foes. 2 See the streams of living waters Springing from eternal love Well supply thy sons and daughters And all fear of want remove. Who can faint while such a river Ever flows their thirst t'assuage? Grace, which, like the Lord, the Giver, Never fails from age to age. 3 Savior, since of Zion's city I through grace a member am, Let the world deride or pity. I will glory in Thy name. Fading is the worldling's pleasure, All his boasted pomp and show; Solid joys and lasting treasure None but Zion's children know. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: HARWELL

He is their Savior and their rock, They trust in Him alone; They walk by faith and hope and love, But they shall dwell with Him above, When hope and faith shall pass away, And love shall last for aye. 2 My Jesus, am I in that band, And wilt Thou call me Thine? Do I among the chosen stand Whose lamps so brightly shine? O let me not lie down to rest Till this I know, my Savior blest, Till I can say, by grace restored: Thou know'st I love Thee, Lord! 3 And even if with tears it be, That this to Thee I say, Yet Thou in grace wilt look on me And wipe my tears away; Yea, when but Thou who all dost know, In me canst find Thy love below And own me Thine, then well is me,-- My all I have in Thee.

My Church, My Church, My Dear Old Church

Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #87 (1930) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: The Means of Grace The Christian Church Lyrics: 1 My Church, my Church, my dear old Church, My fathers’ and my own! On Prophets and Apostles built, And Christ the cornerstone; All else beside, by storm or tide, May yet be overthrown; But not my Church, my dear old Church, My fathers’ and my own. 2 My Church, my Church, my dear old Church, My glory and my pride! Firm in the faith Immanuel taught, She holds no faith beside. Upon this rock, ‘gainst ev'ry shock, Tho' gates of hell assail, She stands secure, with promise sure, They never shall prevail. 3 My Church, my Church, my dear old Church, I've heard the tale of blood, Of hearts that loved her to the death: The great, the wise, the good. Our martyred sires defied the fires For Christ the Crucified; The once delivered faith to keep, They burned, they bled, they died. 4 My Church, my Church, my dear old Church, I love her ancient name; And God forbid, a child of hers Should ever do her shame! Her mother-care I'll ever share; Her child I am alone, Till He Who gave me to her arms Shall call me to His own. Languages: English Tune Title: ATHENS

When heaven and earth are fled before thy glorious face, sing all the saints thy love hath made thine everlasting praise. Languages: English Tune Title: DIADEMATA
