Psalm 122

I Joy when they exhort
To Gods house let's resort;
Behold our feet
Shall early meet,
Jerus'lem, in thy port.
Jerus'lems buildings are
Like to a Citie fair;
For form exact,
And close compact;
Whereto the tribes repair:
The Lords tribes are the same,
To Israels Ark they came;
Each severall tribe,
There to ascribe
Thanksgiving to his Name.
There's thrones of Davids stem,
There's Judgment-thrones for them;
O pray that peace
May never cease
From fair Jerusalem.
Thy lovers peace befalls,
Peace be within thy walls,
Prosperitie
Dwell constantly
Within thy stately halls.
My pray'r thy peace betakes,
For friends and brethrens sakes;
I'l seek thy good
For neighbourhood,
Which our Gods Temple makes.
