EN 1744 How Did My Heart Rejoice to Hear

Ps.122.1

Versi Version 1

1

How did my heart rejoice to hear

My friends devoutly say,

“In Zion let us all appear,

And keep the solemn day!”

2

I love her gates, I love the road;

The church, adorned with grace,

Stands like a palace built for God,

To show His milder face.

3

Up to her courts with joys unknown

The holy tribes repair;

The Son of David holds His throne,

And sits in judgment there.

4

He hears our praises and complaints;

And while His awful voice

Divides the sinners from the saints,

We tremble and rejoice.

5

Peace be within this sacred place,

And joy a constant guest!

With holy gifts and heav’nly grace

Be her attendants blest!

6

My soul shall pray for Zion still,

While life or breath remains;

There my best friends, my kindred dwell,

There God my Savior reigns.
