Happy The Church, Thou Sacred Place

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11565 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Happy the church, thou sacred place, The seat of thy Creator’s grace; Thine holy courts are His abode, Thou earthly palace of our God! 2 Thy walls are strength, and at thy gates A guard of heav’nly warriors waits; Nor shall thy deep foundations move, Fixed on His counsels and His love. 3 Thy foes in vain designs engage, Against His throne in vain they rage; Like rising waves, with angry roar, That dash and die upon the shore. 4 Then let our souls in Sion dwell, Nor fear the wrath of Rome and hell; His arms embrace this happy ground, Like brazen bulwarks built around. 5 God is our shield, and God our sun; Swift as the fleeting moments run, On us He sheds new beams of grace, And we reflect His brightest praise.
