O living God, for thee.

There ev'n the Sparrow freed from wrong  
Hath found a house of rest,

The Swallow there, to lay her young  
Hath built her brooding nest,  
Ev'n by thy Altars Lord of Hoasts  
They find their safe abode,  
And home they fly from round the Coasts  
Toward thee, My King, my God  
Happy, who in thy house reside  
Where thee they ever praise,

Happy, whose strength in thee doth bide,  
And in their hearts thy waies.  
They pass through Baca's thirstie Vale,  
That dry and barren ground  
20  
As through a fruitfull watry Dale  
Where Springs and Showrs abound.  
They journey on from strength to strength  
With joy and gladsom cheer  
7
Till all before our God at length  
In Sion do appear.

Lord God of Hoasts hear now my praier  
O Jacobs God give ear,  
30  
Thou God our shield look on the face  
Of thy anointed dear.  
0 For one day in thy Courts to be
