Revised Grail Psalter Text:

R. Let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord.

I rejoiced when they said to me,
     “Let us go to the house of the LORD.”
And now our feet are standing
     within your gates, O Jerusalem.

Jerusalem is built as a city
     bonded as one together.
It is there that the tribes go up,
     the tribes of the LORD.

For Israel’s witness it is
     to praise the name of the LORD.
There were set the thrones for judgment,
     the thrones of the house of David.

Verses 4 and 5 are for first Sunday of Advent only; they do not appear on Christ the King

For the peace of Jerusalem pray,
     “May they prosper, those who love you.”
May peace abide in your walls,
     and security be in your towers.

For the sake of my family and friends,
     let me say, “Peace upon you.”
For the sake of the house of the LORD, our God,
     I will seek good things for you.
