For Many Years, O God of Grace
Remembrance of Church Priveleges
Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: House of God Longed for and Loved First Line: By Babel's riverside we sat in tears Lyrics: 1 By Babel's riverside we sat in tears,
Rememb'ring Zion's pride in former years,
While on the weeping willows there were hung
The harps our grief had silenced and unstrung.
2 For they who led us there a captive throng
Required that we prepare for them a song;
Yea, there our captives asked for mirth and praise,
Required a song of Zion's happy days.
3 O how shall we thus sing at their command
Songs of the Lord, our King, in this strange land?
O Zion, if I e'er forget thy woe,
Let my right hand its skill no longer know.
4 Yea, let my tongue, i pray, all silent be,
If I do not alway remember thee;
If I prefer not thee, thought in thy grief,
Above all other joys my very chief.

God reveals His presence
How lovely is thy dwelling-place
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 48 hymnals Topics: Approach to God The House of God Lyrics: 1 How lovely is thy dwelling-place,
O Lord of hosts, to me!
The tabernacles of thy grace
How pleasant, Lord, they be!
2 My thirsty soul longs vehemently,
Yea faints, thy courts to see:
My very heart and flesh cry out,
O living God, for thee.
3 Behold, the sparrow findeth out
An house wherein to rest;
The swallow also for herself
Hath purchased a nest;
4 Even thine own altars, where she safe
Her young ones forth may bring,
O thou almighty Lord of hosts,
Who art my God and King.
5 Blest are they in thy house that dwell,
They ever give thee praise.
Blest is the man whose strength thou art,
In whose heart are thy ways.
6 To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
The God whom we adore,
Be glory, as it was, and is,
And shall be evermore.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 84:1-5 Used With Tune: HARINGTON (RETIREMENT)

O set ye open unto me
Thou, who hast in Zion laid
Author: Agnes Bulmer Meter: 7.6.8 Appears in 28 hymnals Topics: The Church The House of God Lyrics: 1 Thou, who hast in Zion laid
The true Foundation-Stone,
And with those a covenant made
Who build on that alone:
Hear us, Architect divine!
Great Builder of thy Church below!
Now upon Thy servants shine,
Who seek Thy praise to show.
2 Earth is Thine; her thousand hills
Thy mighty hand sustains;
Heaven Thy awful presence fills;
O'er all Thy glory reigns:
Yet the place of all prepared
By regal David's favored son,
Thy peculiar blessing shared,
And stood thy chosen throne.
3 We, like Jesse's son, would raise
A temple to the Lord;
Sound throughout its courts His praise,
His saving Name record;
Dedicate a house to Him
Who once, in mortal weakness shrined,
Sorrowed, suffered, to redeem,
To rescue all mankind.
4 Father, Son, and Spirit, send
The consecrating flame;
Now in majesty descend,
Inscribe the living Name:
That great Name by which we live,
Now write on this accepted stone;
Us into Thy hands receive;
Our temple make Thy throne.

And bid thy Church increase,
In breadth and length, in depth and height,
Her unity and peace.
2 Let works of darkness disappear
Before thy conquering light;
Let hatred and tormenting fear
Pass with the passing night. A-men.
3 Let what apostles learned of thee
Be ours from age to age;
Their steadfast faith our unity,
Their peace our heritage.
4 O Judge divine of human strife,
O vanquisher of pain!
To know thee is eternal life,
To serve thee is to reign.
