132C. Arise, O LORD Our God, Arise

1 Arise, O LORD our God, arise
and enter now into your rest;
O let this house be your abode,
forever with your presence blest.

2 Your gracious cov'nant, Lord, fulfill;
turn not away from us your face;
establish here Messiah's throne
and let him reign within this place.

3 Your Zion you have chosen, LORD,
and you have said, "I love her well,
this is my constant resting place,
and here will I delight to dwell."
