Hymn XXVII. Psal. 27.4.
THIS is my great request, O God, Which here I do present, That all the days I have to live May in thy House be spent. There to contemplate and behold The Beauty of the Lord, And in his Temple to enquire Into his holy Word.
8, 9. Whenas thou saidst, My face seek ye, Instructed by thy Grace, My ready heart with Joy replied, Lord, I will seek thy face. Hide not thy face from me in wrath; Lord, turn me not away. My Saviour, thou hast been my help, Be still my strength and stay.

—43.3, 4. O send out Light and Truth divine To lead and bring me near, Unto that holy Hill of thine, And Tabernacles there. ⟨p. 28⟩
