Tune: Luckington
('Let all the world in every corner sing')
Parts of Psalms 84, 85, 86
***********
Your tabernacles, LORD, amiable
They be to all
Your dwellings they lovely
And there your presence be
My soul e'en faints, and longs
To be there, sing you songs
For you, the living God, cries out my heart
Do ne'er depart
For you, LORD God, are a shield and a sun
Unto each one
You will give grace, glory
We shall your mercies see
No good thing will you keep
From us, your trusting sheep
You will guide those who do uprightly live
And peace them give
Mercy and truth, they are together met
Still constant yet
And righteousness and peace
Kissed each other, no cease
Truth from the earth shall spring
It shall fair justice bring
And righteousness shall down from heaven look
We not forsook
All nations that you have made shall come, they
In your sure day
Shall come and worship you
And give you honour due
O LORD, and they shall too
Glorify your name true
For you are great, and do wondrous things sure
You God e'ermore
