Unless the LORD the House Shall Build

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 22 hymnals Topics: Ten Commandments 4th Commandment (Honor your father and mother) Lyrics: 1 Unless the Lord the house shall build, the weary builders toil in vain; unless the LORD the city shield, the guards a useless watch maintain. 2 In vain you rise at morning break, in vain your late-night vigils keep, and draining days of work partake— those whom God loves fall fast asleep. 3 Yes, children are a great reward, a gift from God in very truth; as quiver full of arrows stored are children giv'n in days of youth. 4 How blest are those whose lives are cheered by children's growth in strength and grace. Within their house no foes are feared, for God keeps watch within that place. Scripture: Psalm 127 Used With Tune: O WALY WALY Text Sources: Psalter, 1912, alt.

I have found treasure in your instruction. 4 Joy comes to nations knowing your judgments; keeping them brings us close to your kingdom-- laws that spell freedom, true liberation. 5 My heart is listening for you each morning, never desert me; speak in the nighttime; open my eyes, Lord, then lead me onward. 6 Put right my passions by your clear precept, quell my rebellions, rescue me quickly: raise and restore me, mighty Redeemer. 7 Savior whose Spirit gave us the Scriptures, train me to trust them when I am tempted; unless you helped me, I would go under. 8 Vain are my own ways; yours in the victory.
