Psalm 132

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 76 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 132:5 First Line: Where shall we go to seek and find Lyrics: Where shall we go to seek and find An habitation for our God, A dwelling for th' Eternal Mind, Among the sons of flesh and blood? The God of Jacob chose the hill Of Zion for his ancient rest; And Zion is his dwelling still, His church is with his presence blessed. Here will I fix my gracious throne, And reign for ever, saith the Lord; Here shall my power and love be known, And blessings shall attend my word. Here will I meet the hungry poor, And fill their souls with living bread; Sinners that wait before my door With sweet provision shall be fed. Girded with truth, and clothed with grace, My priests, my ministers, shall shine Not Aaron in his costly dress Made an appearance so divine. The saints, unable to contain Their inward joys, shall shout and sing; The Son of David here shall reign, And Zion triumph in her King.

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 27 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 132:4-5 First Line: No sleep nor slumber to his eyes Lyrics: [No sleep nor slumber to his eyes Good David would afford, Till he had found below the skies A dwelling for the Lord. The Lord in Zion placed his name, His ark was settled there; To Zion the whole nation came To worship thrice a year. But we have no such lengths to go, Nor wander far abroad; Where'er thy saints assemble now, There is a house for God.] Arise, O King of grace, arise, And enter to thy rest! Lo! thy church waits with longing eyes Thus to be owned and blessed. Enter with all thy glorious train, Thy Spirit and thy word; All that the ark did once contain Could no such grace afford. Here, mighty God, accept our vows, Here let thy praise be spread; Bless the provisions of thy house, And fill thy poor with bread. Here let the Son of David reign, Let God's Anointed shine; Justice and truth his court maintain With love and power divine. Here let him hold a lasting throne; And as his kingdom grows, Fresh honors shall adorn his crown, And shame confound his foes.

The Prince is ever in them, the daylight is serene; the pastures of the blessed are decked in glorious sheen. 3 There is the throne of David, and there, from care released, the shout of them that triumph, the song of them that feast; and they who with their Leader have conquered in the fight, forever and forever are clad in robes of white. 4 O sweet and blessed country, the home of God's elect; O dear and future vision, that eager hearts expect: even now by faith we see thee, even here thy walls discern; to thee our thoughts are kindled; for thee our spirits yearn.

A Song of Degrees

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 132 First Line: Remember David, Lord Lyrics: 1 Remember David Lord, And all's affliction: 2 How to the Lord he swore,and vow'd To Jacob's might one. 3 I surely will not go My houses tent into; Now will up to my couch ascend, I thither will not go. 4 I will not verily Give sleep unto mine eyes; Nor slumber to my eye-lids give Will I in any wise. 5 Until that for the Lord, I do find out a seat: A fixed habitation For Jacob's God so great. 6 Behold at Ephrata, There did we of it hear: But in the fields of th' wood with joy We fount it to be there. 7 We'll go into his tents, And at his footstool bow. 8 Into thy rest arise, Lord thou Th' ark of thy strength also. 9 Oh let with right'ousness, Thy priests themselves array, And grant unto thy holy ones, That shout for joy they may. 10 Let not for David's sake, Who servant is to thee, The face of thine anointed one, Away quite turned be. 11 The Lord to David sware In truth: nor turn from it Will he: thy body fruit I'll make Upon thy throne to sit: 12 My covenant and law, Which I shall teach thy sons, If they will keep, then they shall sit Forever on thy throne. 13 Because Jehovah hath Made choice of Sion hill: He hath desired it to be The place where he will dwell. 14 This is my resting place To perpetuity: Here will I dwell and that because Desired it have I. 15 Bless her provision Abundantly I will: The poor that be in her with bread By me shall have their fill. 16 The priests with saving health Them also cloath will I: Her holy ones likewise they shall shout forth most joyfully. 17 The horn of David I Will make to bud forth there, A candle I prepared have For mine anointed dear. 18 His enemies will I With flame apparel them: But flourishing upon himself Shall be his diadem.

Remember, Lord, the toils that David bore

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 132 Lyrics: 1 Remember Lord, the toils that David bore; The woes for thee he suffer'd heretofore; 2 Remember too, how solemnly he vow'd, The sacred oath he took to Jacob's God! 3 "My house (he said) shall not receive it's Lord; "Rest to my wearied limbs shall not afford "My downy bed; sweet sleep shall not surprize, "With all it's flatt'ring lures, my drowsy eyes; "'Till first I know, a temple where to raise, "To his tremendous name, and fix the place." 6 This honour had I to my natal plains Design'd; but he, who o'er our actions reigns, Did to my duteous soul himself reveal The happy region, where he chose to dwell. 7 Come then, ye tribes, with me your God attend, And in his temple 'fore his altar bend; S And thou, eternal God, propitious, deign With thy bright presence to illume the fane; 9 Bless there thy priests in their devout employ, And let the pious soul exult with joy. 10 If e'er thy David with a heart sincere To thee hath breath'd his unpolluted pray'r, E'en he, whom thou'st. adorn'd with regal sway; Receive the vows his off-spring there shall pay. 11 Oft hast thou solemn sworn, almighty Lord, (And time shall cease ere thou forget thy word) "Thy progeny I'll on the throne maintain, "And they for ever o'er my tribes shall reign; 12 "If still thy children will my laws obey, "Nor from the perfect rule I give them, stray; "Their children shall possess the regal pow'r, "Their children's children, e'en till time's no more. 13 "On Sion's hill I've fix'd my own abode; 14 "Sion's the favour'd mansion of her God. 15 "With plenty her inhabitants I'll bless, "And crown her fertile plains with rich increase: 16 "I to her priests will ev'ry grace impart, "And fill with solid joy each pious heart. 17 "From David's loins a mighty chief shall spring, "Whom all the realms around shall own their king; "Whose noble deeds shall grace the royal line, "Whose glorious light o'er all the earth shall shine: 18 "His enemies shall view him with regret; "While shame and infamy their souls await: "Long shall he reign, and have a deathless name, "And everlasting time record his fame."

David, and all his anxious care

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 132 Lyrics: 1 David, and all his anxious care, do thou, O Lord, remember now; how he unto the Lord did swear, to Jacob’s Mighty One did vow: 3 Into my house I will not go, nor will I on my bed repose; sleep to mine eyes I will not know, slumber shall not mine eyelids close. 3 Till I a place find for the Lord, a house for Jacob's Strong One build. Of it at Ephratah we heard, we found it in the forest-field. 4 We'll go into his courts, and bow before the footstool of his grace. Arise, thine ark of strength, and thou, O Lord, into thy resting-place. 5 O let thy priests with righteousness; and let thy saints glad shoutings make; avert not thine anointed's face, for thine own servant David's sake. 6 The Lord hath unto David sworn in truth, he will not turn from it, I of the sons unto thee born will make upon thy throne to sit. 7 If they my covenant will obey, and testimonies I make known, their children I will bless, and they shall sit for ever on thy throne. 8 The Lord hath chosen Zion hill; for there he hath desired to dwell. This is my rest, and here I will abide; for I do like it well. 9 I'll her provision richly bless; with bread her poor I'll satisfy: her priests I'll clothe with righteousness; her saints shall shout aloud for joy. 10 To bud I'll there make David's horn, and for my king a lamp I'll trim; his enemies I'll clothe with scorn, but flourish shall his crown on him.
