[2 Part] 11 The LORD to David sware in truth; The oath he never will disown; "I one descended from thy loins "Will surely set upon thy throne: 12 "And if my covenant and law "That to thy children teach shall I, "They always keep, then shall their race "Sit on thy throne perpetually. 13 "Because the LORD hath Zion chose, "And there desir'd to have his seat; 14 "This is my rest for ever; here "I'll dwell, for I desired it; 15 "I'll here provision greatly bless "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 spring "There my MESSIAH'S lamp ordain: 18 "With sham I'll cloath his foes: on Him "His crown shall flourish and remain.

Let David, Lord, a constant place

Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 132 Lyrics: 1 Let David, Lord, a constant Place in thy Remembrance find; Let all the Sorrows he endur'd, be ever in thy Mind. 2 Remember what a solemn Oath to Thee, his Lord, he swore; How to the mighty God he vow'd, whom Jacob's Sons adore: 3,4 I will not go into my House, nor to my Bed ascend; No soft Repose shall close my Eyes, nor Sleep my Eye-lids bend; 5 'Till for the Lord's design'd Abode I mark the destin'd Ground; 'Till I a decent Place of Rest for Jacob's God have found. 6 Th' appointed Place with Shouts of Joy, at Ephrata we found, And made the woods and neighb'ring Fields our glad Applause resound. 7 O with due Rev'rence let us then to his Abode repair; And, prostrate at his Footstool fall'n, pour out our humble Pray'r. 8 Arise, O Lord, and now possess thy constant Place of Rest; Be that, not only with thy Ark, but with thy Presence blest. 9.10 Cloath thou thy Priests with Righteousness, make thou thy Saints rejoice; And for thy Servant David's Sake, hear thy Anointed's Voice. 11 God sware to David in his Truth, (nor shall his Oath be vain) One of thy Offspring after thee upon thy Throne shall reign: 12 And if thy Seed my Cov'nant keep, and so my Laws submit; Their Children too upon thy Throne for evermore shall sit. 13,14 For Sion does in God's Esteem all other Seats excel; His Place of everlasting Rest, where he desires to dwell. 15,16 Her Store, says he, I will increase, her Poor with Plenty bless; Her Saints shall shout for Joy, her Priests my saving Health confess. 17 There David's Pow'r shall long remain in his successive Line, And my anointed Servant there shall with fresh Lustre shine. 15 The Faces of his vanquish'd Foes Confusion shall o'erspread; Whilst with confirm'd Success, his Crown shall flourish on his Head.
