Delight in Ordinances of Worship; or, GOD present in his Churches

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #LXXXIVc (1780) First Line: My soul, how lovely is the place Lyrics: 1 My soul, how lovely is the place To which thy GOD resorts! 'Tis heav'n to see his smiling face, Tho' in his earthly courts. 2 There the great Monarch of the skies His saving pow'r displays, And light breaks in upon our eyes With kind and quick'ning rays. 3 With his rich gifts the heav'nly dove Descends and fills the place, While CHRIST reveals his wond'rous love, And sheds abroad his grace. 4 There, mighty GOD, thy words declare The secrets of thy will; And still we seek thy mercy there And sing thy praises still. Pause. 5 My heart and flesh cry out for thee, While far from thine abode; When shall I tread thy courts, and see My Savior and my GOD? 6 The sparrow builds herself a nest, And suffers no remove; O make me, like the sparrows, blest, To dwell but where I love. 7 To sit one day beneath thine eye, And hear thy gracious voice, Exceeds a whole eternity Employ'd in carnal joys. 8 LORD, at thy threshold I would wait While JESUS is within, Rather than fill a throne of state, Or live in tents of sin. 9 Could I command the spacious land, And the more boundless sea, For one blest hour at thy right hand I'd give them both away.
