How Lovely, Lord, How Lovely
Author: Arlo D. Duba Hymnal: Psalms for All Seasons #84C (2012) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Year A, B, C, Presentation of the Lord, February 2 Lyrics: 1 How lovely, Lord, how lovely
is your abiding place;
my soul is longing, fainting,
to feast upon your grace.
The sparrow finds a shelter,
a place to build her nest,
and so your temple calls us
with in its walls to rest.
2 In your blest courts to worship,
O God, a single day
is better than a thousand
if I from you should stray.
I’d rather keep the entrance
and claim you as my Lord
than revel in the riches
the ways of sin afford.
3 A sun and shield forever
are you, O Lord Most High;
you shower us with blessings;
no good will you deny.
The saints, your grace receiving,
from strength to strength shall go,
and from their life shall rivers
of blessing overflow. Scripture: Psalm 84 Tune Title: MERLE'S TUNE

How Lovely Is Your Dwelling
Hymnal: Psalms for All Seasons #84A (2012) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Year A, B, C, Presentation of the Lord, February 2 Lyrics: 1 How lovely is your dwelling,
O Lord of hosts, to me;
my soul is longing, fainting,
the courts of God to see.
The beauty of your dwelling
will bring me joy anew.
My heart and flesh are crying,
O living God, for you.
2 Beneath your care the sparrow
finds place for peaceful rest;
to keep her young in safety
the swallow finds a nest.
So, Lord, my King Almighty,
your love will shelter me;
beneath your wings of mercy
my dwelling place will be.
3 Blest they who love and serve you,
whose joy and strength you are.
Forever they will praise you,
your ways are in their heart.
Though tried, their tears like showers
shall fill the springs of peace,
and all the way to Zion
their strength shall still increase. Scripture: Psalm 84 Tune Title: ST. EDITH

How Lovely Is Thy Dwelling Place
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Hymnal: Psalms for All Seasons #84E (2012) Topics: Year A, B, C, Presentation of the Lord, February 2 Lyrics: 1 How lovely is thy dwelling place,
O Lord of hosts, to me!
My thirsty soul desires and longs
within thy courts to be;
my very heart and flesh cry out,
O living God, for thee.
2 Beside thine altars, gracious Lord,
the swallows find a nest;
how happy they who dwell with thee
and praise thee without rest,
and happy they whose hearts are set
upon the pilgrims' quest.
3 They who go through the desert vale
will find it filled with springs,
and they shall climb from height to height
till Zion's temple rings
with praise to thee, in glory throned,
Lord God, great King of kings.
4 One day within thy courts excels
a thousand spent away;
how happy they who keep thy laws
nor from thy precepts stray,
for thou shalt surely bless all those
who live the words they pray.
Optional stanza from Psalm 23:
Goodness and mercy all my life
shall surely follow me,
and in God's house forevermore
my dwelling place shall be;
and in God's house forevermore
my dwelling place shall be. Scripture: Psalm 84 Tune Title: BROTHER JAMES' AIR
