Lyics

Praise on thee, in Zion's gates,

Daily, O Jehovah, waits;

Unto thee, who hearest prayer

Shall the tribes of men repair.



Though with conscious guilt oppressed,

On thy mercy still we rest;

Thy forgiving love display,

Take, O Lord our sins away.



O, how blessed their reward,

Chosen servants of the Lord,

Who within thy courts abide,

With thy goodness satisfied
