How lovely is your dwelling place (psalm 84)

How lovely is your dwelling place,

O Lord mighty God, Lord of all

How lovely is your dwelling place,

O Lord mighty God, Lord of all

Even the lowly sparrow finds a home for her brood

And the swallow a nest for herself

Where she may lay here young

In your altars my king and my God

How lovely is your dwelling place,

O Lord mighty God, Lord of all

Blessed are they whose dwelling

Is Your own Lord of peace

Blest are they refreshed by springs and by rain

When dryness daunts and scathes

Behold my shield

My king and my God!

How lovely is your dwelling place,

O Lord mighty God, Lord of all

I would forsake a thousand

Other days anywhere

If I could spend one day in Your

Courts belong to you alone

My strength are You alone

My glory, my king and my God!

How lovely is your dwelling place,

O Lord mighty God, Lord of all
