PSALM LXXXIV.

O how amiable are thy dwellings thou Lord of hosts!

My soul hath a desire and longing to enter into the courts of the Lord: my heart and my flesh rejoice in the living God.

Yea, the sparrow hath found her an house, and the swallow a nest, where she may lay her young: even thy altars, O Lord of hosts, my King and my God.

Blessed are they that dwell in thy house they will be alway praising Thee.

Blessed is the man whose strength is in Thee: in whose heart are thy ways.

They will go from strength to strength, and unto the God of gods appeareth every one of them in

I had rather be a door keeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of ungodliness.

For the Lord God is a light and defence the Lord will give grace and worship, and no good thing shall he withhold from them that live a godly life.

O Lord God of hosts; blessed is the man that putteth his trust in Thee.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son; and to the Holy Ghost;

Answer. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: world without end.-Amen.

O Lord, our heavenly Father, Almighty and everlasting God, who hast safely brought us to the beginning of this day; Defend us in the same with thy mighty power; and grant that this day we fall into no sin, neither run into any kind of danger; but that all our doings may be ordered by thy governance, to do always that is righteous in thy sight; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
