Psalm
87
[Recommended tunes: St Gregory, York]
A
Psalm or Song for the sons of Korah.
|
1Upon the hills of holiness
he his foundation sets.
2God, more than Jacob's dwellings all,
delights in Sion's gates.
|
|
3Things glorious are said of thee,
thou city of the Lord.
4Rahab and
Babel
I, to those
that know me, will record:
|
|
Behold
ev'n Tyrus, and with it
the
land
of
Palestine
,
And
likewise
Ethiopia
;
this man was born therein.
|
|
5And it of Sion shall be said,
This man and that man there
Was
born; and he that is most High
himself shall stablish her.
|
|
6When God the people writes, he'll count
that this man born was there.
7There be that sing and play; and all
my well-springs in thee are.
