A Church established

Appears in 27 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 122:4-5 First Line: No sleep nor slumber to his eyes Lyrics: 1 [No sleep nor slumber to his eyes Good David would afford, Till he had found below the skies A dwelling for the Lord. 2 The Lord in Zion plac'd his name, His ark was settled there: And there th' assembled nation came To worship thrice a year. 3 We trace no more these toilsome ways, Nor wander far abroad; Where e’er thy people meet for praise, There is a house for God.] Pause. 4 Arise, O King of grace, arise, And enter to thy rest, Lo! thy church waits with longing eyes Thus to be own'd and blest. 5 Enter with all thy glorious train, Thy spirit and thy word; All that the ark did once contain Could no such grace afford. 6 Here mighty God, accept our vows, Here let thy praise be spread; Bless the provisions of thy house, And fill thy poor with bread. 7 Here, let the Son of David reign, Let God’s anointed shine; Justice and truth his court maintain, With love and power divine. 8 Here let him hold a lasting throne, And as his kingdom grows, Fresh honours shall adorn his crown, And shame confound his foes.

Before you on the mountains shall peace, the herald, go, and righteousness in fountains from hill to valley flow. 4 All rulers bow before you, and gold and incense bring. All nations shall adore you; your praise all people sing. To you shall prayer unceasing and daily vows ascend. Your rule is still increasing; your rule is without end.
