Author: Marrick Appears in 25 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 122 First Line: The joyful morn, my God, is come Lyrics: 1 The joyful morn, my God, is come
That calls me to thy honour'd dome
Thy presence to adore:
My feet the summons shall attend,
With willing steps thy courts ascend,
And tread the hallow'd floor.
2 Hither, from Judah's utmost end,
The heaven-protected tribes ascend;
Their offerings hither bring:
Here, eager to attest their joy,
In hymns of praise their tongues employ,
And hail th' immortal king.
3 Be peace implor'd by each on thee,
O Sion, while with bended knee,
To Jacob's God we pray:
How bless'd who calls himself thy friend!
Success his lobuor shall attend,
And safely guard his way.
4 O may'st thou, free from hostile fear,
Nor the loud voice of tumult hear,
Nor war's wild waste deplore:
May plenty nigh thee take her stand,
And in thy courts, with lavish hand,
Distribute all her store.
5 Seat of my friends and brethren, hail!
How can my tongue, O Zion, fail
To bless thy lov'd abode?
How cease the zeal that in me glows,
Thy good to seek, whose walls inclose
The mansions of my God?
