How Lovely Is Your Dwelling Place Songtext

von Himig Heswita

How lovely is your dwelling place,
O Lord mighty God, Lord of all

Even the lowly sparrow finds a home for her brood
And the swallow a nest for herself
Where she may lay here young
In your altars my king and my God

How lovely is your dwelling place,
O Lord mighty God, Lord of all

Blessed are they whose dwelling
Is Your own Lord of peace
Blest are they refreshed by springs and by rain
When dryness daunts and scathes
Behold my shield
My king and my God!

How lovely is your dwelling place,
O Lord mighty God, Lord of all

I would forsake a thousand
Other days anywhere
If I could spend one day in Your
Courts belong to you alone
My strength are You alone
My glory, my king and my God!

How lovely is your dwelling place,
O Lord mighty God, Lord of all
