Remember, LORD, for David's sake His afflictions, ev'ry one! He swore unto the LORD. He vowed To Jacob's Mighty One "I will not go into my house I will not lie in bed I will not let my eyes have sleep Or give my eyelids rest Till I find a place for the LORD Find a dwelling place for Jacob's Mighty One" Look! We heard it there in Ephrathah Found it there in Jaar's fields Let us go up to his dwelling place Let us bow before his feet Arise, LORD, to your resting place With the ark your might! And let your priests wear righteousness Your people sing delight! For the sake of David your servant Don't turn back the face of your Anointed One! The LORD to David swore an oath From which he will not turn "One from the womb, who is your fruit I will set upon your throne If your sons keep my covenant My law I'll teach to them Then even their sons evermore Upon your throne will sit" For the LORD has chosen Zion He desires to have her for his dwelling place! Forever this will be my rest Here I'll dwell as I desire I'll bless her food abundantly Satisfy her poor with bread Salvation I will give her priests To cover them like clothes And then her saints will sing for joy And David's power will grow And a lamp for my Anointed I've prepared I will clothe his foes with shame But on him his crown will shine
