How amiable are thy tabernacles
Appears in 45 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How amiable are Thy tabernacles: O Lord of hosts!
2 My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of the Lord: my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God.
3 Yea, the sparrow hath found a house and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young: even Thine altars, O Lord of hosts, my King and my God.
4 Blessed are they that dwell in Thy house: they will be still praising Thee.
5 Blessed is the man whose strength is in Thee: in whose heart are the ways of them.
6 Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well: and rain also filleth the pools.
7 They go from strength to strength: every one of them in Sion appeareth before God.
8 O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear O God of Jacob.
9 Behold O God our shield; and look upon the face of Thine anointed.
10 For a day in Thy courts is better than a thousand: I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
11 For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory, no good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly.
12 O Lord of hosts: blessed is the man that trusteth in Thee.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son: and to the Holy Ghost;
As it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be: world without end

Come, let us sing to the Lord
Hymnal: The Hymnal 1982 #S36 (1985) Lyrics: 1. Come let us sing to the Lord;
let us shout for joy to the Rock of our salvation.
2. Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving
and raise a loud shout to him with psalms. [Antiphon]
3. For the Lord is a great God,
and a great King above all gods.
4. In his hand are the caverns of the earth,
and the heights of the hills are his also.
5. The sea is his, for he made it,
and his hands have molded the dry land. [Antiphon]
6. Come, let us bow down, and bend the knee,
and kneel before the Lord our Maker.
7. For he is our God,
and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand.
Oh, that today you would hearken to his voice! [Antiphon]
8. Harden not your hearts
as your forebears did in the wilderness,
at Meribah, and on that day at Massah, when they tempted me.
9. They put me to the test,
though they had seen my works. [Antiphon]
10. Forty years long I detested that generation and said,
"This people are wayward in their hearts;
they do not know my ways."
11. So I swore in my wrath,
"They shall not enter into my rest." [Antiphon]
Glory to the Father, and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit:
As it was in the beginning, is now,
and will be for ever. Amen. [Antiphon] Topics: The Daily Office Daily Morning Prayer II Languages: English Tune Title: [Come, let us sing to the Lord]
