 1  How lovely are Thy dwellings, 
       O Eternal Lord of Hosts!
    My soul is longing, fainting,
       for Thee O living God.
    Yea, the bird has found its home,
       build a nest to lay her young;
    O that I may find Thine altars,
       my Lord, my King, my God! 

 2  How lovely are Thy dwellings,
       O Eternal Lord of Hosts!
    For those who dwell in Thy house
       shall ever sing Thy praise!
    Blest and happy is the man,
       who has found his strength in Thee;
    He is stronger day by day,
       and shall in Zion dwell! 

 3  How lovely are Thy dwellings,
       O Eternal Lord of Hosts!
    Give ear unto my prayer,
       O God of Israel;
    For a day with thee is better
       than a thousand other days;
    O that I may find Thine altars,
       My Lord, my King, my God!
