Unless the Lord the house shall build
Where Blessed Abr'am Pitched His Tent
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Where blessed Abr'am pitched his tent,
He built an altar to his God,
And sanctified, where'er he went,
With faith and prayer, the ground he trod.
2. Through all the East, for riches famed,
Heav'n's gifts, he set his heart on none;
Nor, when the dearest was reclaimed,
Withheld his son, his only son.
3. Wherefore, in blessing, he was blest;
Friendless, the friend of God became;
Long-wand'ring, ev'ry where found rest;
Long child-less, nations bear his name.
4. Nor nations born of blood alone,
The father of the faithful he;
Where'er his promised seed is known,
Faith's heirs are his posterity.
5. My God, what you have made my home,
Let me your sanctuary make;
My God, if called by you to roam,
Glad may I all for you forsake.
6. Your law, your love, be my delight,
Whate’er I do, or think, or am,
Walking by faith and not by sight,
Like a true child of Abraham. Topics: Ordinary Time Week 5 Scripture: Genesis 12:1-2 Used With Tune: PERFECT SECURITY
