How lovely is Thy dwelling place
O Lord of hosts to me!
The tabernacles of Thy grace
How pleasant, Lord, they be!
My thirsty soul longs ardently
Yes, faints Thy courts to see;
My very heart and flesh cry out
O living God, for Thee.
Behold the sparrow findeth out
A house wherein to rest;
The swallow also, for herself
Provided hath a nest.
Ee’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.
Blest 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.
