A Song of Degrees
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 132 First Line: Remember David, Lord Lyrics: 1 Remember David Lord,
And all's affliction:
2 How to the Lord he swore,and vow'd
To Jacob's might one.
3 I surely will not go
My houses tent into;
Now will up to my couch ascend,
I thither will not go.
4 I will not verily
Give sleep unto mine eyes;
Nor slumber to my eye-lids give
Will I in any wise.
5 Until that for the Lord,
I do find out a seat:
A fixed habitation
For Jacob's God so great.
6 Behold at Ephrata,
There did we of it hear:
But in the fields of th' wood with joy
We fount it to be there.
7 We'll go into his tents,
And at his footstool bow.
8 Into thy rest arise, Lord thou
Th' ark of thy strength also.
9 Oh let with right'ousness,
Thy priests themselves array,
And grant unto thy holy ones,
That shout for joy they may.
10 Let not for David's sake,
Who servant is to thee,
The face of thine anointed one,
Away quite turned be.
11 The Lord to David sware
In truth: nor turn from it
Will he: thy body fruit I'll make
Upon thy throne to sit:
12 My covenant and law,
Which I shall teach thy sons,
If they will keep, then they shall sit
Forever on thy throne.
13 Because Jehovah hath
Made choice of Sion hill:
He hath desired it to be
The place where he will dwell.
14 This is my resting place
To perpetuity:
Here will I dwell and that because
Desired it have I.
15 Bless her provision
Abundantly I will:
The poor that be in her with bread
By me shall have their fill.
16 The priests with saving health
Them also cloath will I:
Her holy ones likewise they shall
shout forth most joyfully.
17 The horn of David I
Will make to bud forth there,
A candle I prepared have
For mine anointed dear.
18 His enemies will I
With flame apparel them:
But flourishing upon himself
Shall be his diadem.
A Song of Degrees
Thy promise, Lord, to David, mind
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 132 Lyrics: 1. Thy Promise, Lord to David, mind.
And all the Chast'ning of thy Rod.
2. How to Jehovah he hath sworn,
And vow'd to Jacob's mighty God.
3. I will not go into my House,
Nor on my Bed my Limbs, repose;
4. No Sleep I'll to mine Eyes afford,
Nor Slumber shall mine Eye-lids close;
5. 'Till, for the Lord, I have found out,
And for his Ark, a resting Place;
Which shall the future Dwelling be,
Of the great God of Jacob's Race.
6. Behold, we heard it's spreading Fame,
At Ephrata; but now have found
The chosen Spot, for it's Abode,
Where Hills of mighty Woods surround.
7. We'll go into his sacred Tents,
Our Worship, at his Foot-stool, pay.
8. Arise, O Lord, into thy Rest;
And with thine Ark of Strength there stay.
9. Array thy Priests with Righteousness;
Let all thy Saints aloud rejoice.
10. And for thy Servant David's Sake,
Despise not thine Anointed's Voice.
Second Part
11. The Lord, to David, sware in Truth,
The Oath he never will disown;
"That, one, descended from thy Loins,
"Shall surely sit upon thy Throne.
12. "And if thy Sons my Cov'nant keep,
"And to my sacred Laws submit;
"Their Children also, evermore,
"Upon thy royal Throne shall sit.
13. Because the Lord hath Sion chose;
And there desir'd to have his Seat.
14. This is my Rest forever; here
I'll dwell; for I've desired it.
15. I'll surely bless her growing Stores;
And satisfy her Poor with Food.
16. Her Priests, with my Salvation, cloath;
Her Saints, with Joy, shall shout aloud.
17. There David's Horn I'll make to bud;
There mine Anointed's Lamp ordain.
18. With Shame I'll cloath his Foes; on him
His Crown shall flourishing remain.
Thy promise, Lord, to David, mind

Once In Royal David's City, When the King Was in Distress
Remember, Lord, the toils that David bore
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 132 Lyrics: 1 Remember Lord, the toils that David bore;
The woes for thee he suffer'd heretofore;
2 Remember too, how solemnly he vow'd,
The sacred oath he took to Jacob's God!
3 "My house (he said) shall not receive it's Lord;
"Rest to my wearied limbs shall not afford
"My downy bed; sweet sleep shall not surprize,
"With all it's flatt'ring lures, my drowsy eyes;
"'Till first I know, a temple where to raise,
"To his tremendous name, and fix the place."
6 This honour had I to my natal plains
Design'd; but he, who o'er our actions reigns,
Did to my duteous soul himself reveal
The happy region, where he chose to dwell.
7 Come then, ye tribes, with me your God attend,
And in his temple 'fore his altar bend;
S And thou, eternal God, propitious, deign
With thy bright presence to illume the fane;
9 Bless there thy priests in their devout employ,
And let the pious soul exult with joy.
10 If e'er thy David with a heart sincere
To thee hath breath'd his unpolluted pray'r,
E'en he, whom thou'st. adorn'd with regal sway;
Receive the vows his off-spring there shall pay.
11 Oft hast thou solemn sworn, almighty Lord,
(And time shall cease ere thou forget thy word)
"Thy progeny I'll on the throne maintain,
"And they for ever o'er my tribes shall reign;
12 "If still thy children will my laws obey,
"Nor from the perfect rule I give them, stray;
"Their children shall possess the regal pow'r,
"Their children's children, e'en till time's no more.
13 "On Sion's hill I've fix'd my own abode;
14 "Sion's the favour'd mansion of her God.
15 "With plenty her inhabitants I'll bless,
"And crown her fertile plains with rich increase:
16 "I to her priests will ev'ry grace impart,
"And fill with solid joy each pious heart.
17 "From David's loins a mighty chief shall spring,
"Whom all the realms around shall own their king;
"Whose noble deeds shall grace the royal line,
"Whose glorious light o'er all the earth shall shine:
18 "His enemies shall view him with regret;
"While shame and infamy their souls await:
"Long shall he reign, and have a deathless name,
"And everlasting time record his fame."

Psalm 32: I Turn to You, Lord
David, and all his anxious care
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 132 Lyrics: 1 David, and all his anxious care,
do thou, O Lord, remember now;
how he unto the Lord did swear,
to Jacob’s Mighty One did vow:
3 Into my house I will not go,
nor will I on my bed repose;
sleep to mine eyes I will not know,
slumber shall not mine eyelids close.
3 Till I a place find for the Lord,
a house for Jacob's Strong One build.
Of it at Ephratah we heard,
we found it in the forest-field.
4 We'll go into his courts, and bow
before the footstool of his grace.
Arise, thine ark of strength, and thou,
O Lord, into thy resting-place.
5 O let thy priests with righteousness;
and let thy saints glad shoutings make;
avert not thine anointed's face,
for thine own servant David's sake.
6 The Lord hath unto David sworn
in truth, he will not turn from it,
I of the sons unto thee born
will make upon thy throne to sit.
7 If they my covenant will obey,
and testimonies I make known,
their children I will bless, and they
shall sit for ever on thy throne.
8 The Lord hath chosen Zion hill;
for there he hath desired to dwell.
This is my rest, and here I will
abide; for I do like it well.
9 I'll her provision richly bless;
with bread her poor I'll satisfy:
her priests I'll clothe with righteousness;
her saints shall shout aloud for joy.
10 To bud I'll there make David's horn,
and for my king a lamp I'll trim;
his enemies I'll clothe with scorn,
but flourish shall his crown on him.
