Tune: Hursley
('Sun of my soul, thou Saviour dear')
********
Psalm 131 v.1
Lord, my heart it not haughty is
But I content myself in this
That my eyes they not lofty be
Nor too great matters do I see
Psalm 131 v.2
I have behaved, quieted myself
This shall be to my soul's good health
As a child weaned of mother, my soul
Is, in simplicity made whole
Psalm 130 v.1
Out of the depths to you I cried
To you, Lord, draw near to my side
Lord hear my voice, my prayer to you
Come to me, hear me, me renew
Psalm 132 v.13
The Lord Zion has chosen sure
His residence for evermore
'Tis holy mount, His habitation
Welcoming all of each nation
Psalm 132 v.16
Priests clothed there with His salvation
Saints shout for joy there, every one
Gone gloom and darkness, none affright
Day break dawns there with His true light
Psalm 134 v.1
Behold, bless the Lord, you servants
of His, who do take up night stance
In His house, to praise Him, His name
And proclaim his eternal fame
Psalm 134 v.2-3
Lift up your hands in sanctuary
In His Temple, holy it be
Bless His name you on night duty
And He bless you, your watchings see
