62- How Lovely Is Thy Dwelling Place

Worship: Opening of Worship

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 ardently,
  • Yea, faints Thy courts to see;
  • My very heart and flesh cry out,
  • O living God, for Thee.

3

  • Behold the sparrow findeth out
  • A house wherein to rest;
  • The swallow also, for herself
  • Provided hath a nest.

4

  • Ev'n Thine own altars, where she safe
  • Her young ones forth may bring,
  • O Thou, almighty Lord of hosts,
  • Who art my God and King.

5

  • Hest are they in Thy house that dwell,
  • They ever give Thee praise.
  • Blest is the man whose strength Thou art,
  • In whose heart are Thy ways.
