The Church the Birth-place of the Saints' or, Jews and Gentiles united in the Christian Church
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #151b (1740) Topics: Church the birth-place of saints First Line: GOD in his earthly Temple lays Lyrics: 1 God in his earthly Temple lays
Foundations for his heav'nly Praise;
He likes the Tents of Jacob well,
But still in Sion loves to dwell.
2 His Mercy visits ev'ry House
That pay their Night and Morning Vows;
But makes a more delightful Stay
Where Churches meet to praise and pray.
3 What glories were describ'd of old?
What Wonders are of Sion told?
Thou City of our God below,
Thy Fame shall Tyre and Egypt know.
4 Egypt and Tyre, and Greek and Jew,
Shall there begin their Lives anew;
Angels and Men shall join to sing
The Hill where living Waters spring.
5 When God makes up his last Account
Of Natives in his holy Mount,
'Twill be an Honour to appear
As one new-born or nourish'd there.
