Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Hymnal #50 (1950) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Topics: Aspiration Lyrics: 1 Lord of the worlds above, How pleasant and how fair The dwellings of Thy love, Thine earthly temples, are!

They praise Thee still; and happy they That love the way to Zion's hill. 3 They go from strength to strength, Through this dark vale of tears, Till each arrives at length, Till each in heaven appears: O glorious seat, when God, our King, Shall thither bring our willing feet! 4 God is our Sun and Shield, Our Light and our Defense; With gifts His hands are filled: We draw our blessings thence. Thrice happy he, O God of Hosts, Whose spirit trusts alone in Thee! Amen. Scripture: Psalm 84 Tune Title: DARWALL'S 148TH
