    Lyrics:

    Text:
    I was glad when they said unto me,
    We will go into the house of the Lord.
    Peace be within thy walls, and plenteousness within thy palaces.
    For thy brethren and companion's sake, I will wish thee prosperity.
    Yea, because of the house of the Lord our God,
    I will seek to do thee good.
