I reioyced, when they sayd to me, We wil go into the house of the Lord. (Psalme 122:1 Geneva Bible)

HYMN 11, C. M.
Pardon brought to our senses.
by Isaac Watts (1674-1748)

ord, how divine thy comforts are!
How heav’nly is the place
Where Jesus spreads the sacred feast
Of his redeeming grace!

There the rich bounties of our God,
And sweetest glories shine;
There Jesus says that “I am his,
And my Beloved's mine.”

“Here,” says the kind, redeeming Lord,
And shows his wounded side;
“See here the spring of all your joys
That opened when I died.”

[He smiles, and cheers my mournful heart,
And tells of all his pain;
“All this,” says he, “I bore for thee;”
And then he smiles again.]

What shall we pay our heav’nly King
For grace so vast as this?
He brings our pardon to our eyes,
And seals it with a kiss.

[Let such amazing loves as these
Be sounded all abroad;
Such favors are beyond degrees,
And worthy of a God.]

To him that washed us in his blood
Be everlasting praise;
Salvation, honor, glory, power,
Eternal as his days.]

—from The Psalms & Hymns of Isaac Watts. Hymns and Spiritual Songs. Book III: Prepared for the Holy Ordinance of the Lord's Supper (Soli Deo Gloria, 1997).

salme 132 (Geneva Bible)
A song of degrees.

1 Lord, remember Dauid with all his affliction.
2 Who sware vnto the Lord, and vowed vnto the mightie God of Iaakob, saying,
3 I will not enter into the tabernacle of mine house, nor come vpon my pallet or bed,
4 Nor suffer mine eyes to sleepe, nor mine eye lids to slumber,
5 Vntill I finde out a place for the Lord, an habitation for the mightie God of Iaakob.
6 Lo, we heard of it in Ephrathah, and found it in the fieldes of the forest.
7 We will enter into his Tabernacles, and worship before his footestoole.
8 Arise, O Lord, to come into thy rest, thou, and the Arke of thy strength.
9 Let thy Priests be clothed with righteousnesse, and let thy Saints reioyce.
10 For thy seruant Dauids sake refuse not the face of thine Anointed.
11 The Lord hath sworne in trueth vnto Dauid, and he wil not shrinke from it, saying, Of the fruite of thy body will I set vpon thy throne.
12 If thy sonnes keepe my couenant, and my testimonies, that I shall teach them, their sonnes also shall sit vpon thy throne for euer.
13 For the Lord hath chosen Zion, and loued to dwell in it, saying,
14 This is my rest for euer: here will I dwell, for I haue a delite therein.
15 I will surely blesse her vitailes, and will satisfie her poore with bread,
16 And will clothe her Priests with saluation, and her Saints shall shoute for ioye.
17 There will I make the horne of Dauid to bud: for I haue ordeined a light for mine Anoynted.
18 His enemies will I clothe with shame, but on him his crowne shall florish.
