Lyric:
How love-ly is Your dwell-ing place oh Lord, al-might-y!
My soul yearns, and faints for the courts of the Lord.
My heart and my flesh cry out for You, the Liv-ing God.
E-ven the spar-row finds a home.
Swal-low finds a fine nest for her-self to lay her young.
Your al-tars, Lord of hosts, God al-might-y King.
Blest are those who live with-in Your courts, oh Lord.
They will still be prais-ing You.

Bless-ed is the man whose strength is in You, O God!
And long to tra-vel all the roads that lead to Your house!
Those who make their way through the val-ley of Ba-ca,
Ear-ly rain cov-ers it with bless-ings!
The val-ley of the weep-ing tear be-comes a well of grace.
They shall go from strength un-to strength and they meet God.
O, Je-ho-vah God of arm-ies, hear my prayer.
God of Ja-cob lend thine ear.

O God, my God!
You are the health of my coun-te-nance.
On the harp I will praise You.
Let my mouth be filled with Your praise,
And with Your glo-ry all the day.

God is the shield that pro-tects His peo-ple.
Look with fa-vor on the face of Your a-noint-ed.
A day in Your court is bet-ter than a thou-sand.
I would ra-ther keep watch on the door,
than to dwell in tents of un-god-ly hosts.
The Lord God is a sun and shield. Grace and glo-ry gives.
No good things will He with-hold from the blame-less.
We are bless-ed in the Lord.
