John Campbell
How lovely is your dwelling place, Lord God of hosts.
My soul is longing and yearning for the house of the Lord.
My heart and soul ring out their joy to God, the living God.
The sparrow finds a home, the swallow a nest for her brood;
she lays her young by your altars, O Lord, my King, my God.
They are happy who dwell in your house, for ever singing your praise.
They are happy whose strength is in you, they walk with ever growing strength.
Ps 83: Words taken from The Psalms : A New Translation published by William Collins & Co Ltd (c) The Grail.
Music David Harris © Kevin Mayhew Ltd. Recorded by The St Mungo Singers with whom John sang as a Bass for almost 50 years.
