Tune: Ravenshaw

('Lord, thy word abideth')

Psalm 134

********

Behold, you the Lord bless

All His servants, confess

You that stand by night in

The temple, raise therein

 

You that stand by night there

Partake in worship's share

Lift up there your hands high

Bless the Lord, He be nigh

 

The Lord that heaven made

And the earth all arrayed

Bless you out of Zion

He of David, scion* (*descendant)

          Aim high my brother. Aim high! I really shouldn’t be a tippler. Great stuff G.P.D.

            Thanks JM. You gone to bed?! Dreaming of 'youuuuuuuuu'. Notice those extras 'u's there. lol.

              Always dreaming about my miserable self. Luckily I’m usually knackered!

              Lip up buddy!

                That's some more 'u's used there - in lip up buddy. A programme said 'youse' instead of 'you two'. Don't know what accent that is.
