47 Peace be to thy every dwelling

1 Peace be to thy every dwelling, City by Jehovah blest! Who, His grace to thee revealing Thee preserves in peace and rest. May His presence still attend thee; May'st thou sit by day and night In His shadow with delight; His all-powerful arm defend thee; Prize, O prize, thy lot of grace; Live unto thy Savior's praise. 2 Lord, we fervently implore Thee, That, while pilgrims here below, We may walk in truth before Thee, And in all Thy knowledge grow; Showing forth Thy matchless praises; Thou who, out of sin's dark night, Hast to Thine own marvelous light Called Thy people, O Lord Jesus: Keep and seal us ever Thine, Leave with us Thy peace divine.
