Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #501 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: Hymns, Selected and Original Lyrics: 1 The Lord in Zion plac'd his name,
His ark was settled there;
To Zion the whole nation came
To worship thrice a year.
2 But we have no such lengths to go,
Nor wander far abroad;
Where'er thy saints assemble now,
There is a house for God.
3 Here, mighty God! accept our vows;
Here let thy praise by spread.
Bless the provisions of thy house,
And fill thy poor with bread.
4 Here let the son of David reign,
Let God's anointed shine;
Justice and truth his court maintain,
With love and pow'r divine. Topics: The Means of Grace Public Worship
