  1. Hymn 96 Unless the Lord Shall Build the House

  2. Verse 1 Unless the Lord shall build the house, the weary builders toil in vain;

  3. Unless the Lord the city shields, the guards maintain a useless watch.

  4. In vain you rise ere morning break, and late your nightly vigils keep,

  5. And bread of anxious care partake; God gives to His beloved sleep.

  6. Verse 2 Lo, children are the gift of God, and sons the blessing He commands;

  7. These whom in youthful days bestowed, are like the shafts in warriors’ hands.

  8. And happy they whose quivers bear full store of arrows such as these;

  9. They in the gate are free from fear, and boldly face their enemies.

  10. Last Verse That man is blest who fears the Lord, who lives and walks in all His ways;

  11. For of his labor shall he eat, and he shall prosper all his days.

  12. His wife shall be a fruitful vine; his children all like olive plants.

  13. Behold the man who fears the Lord! To him His blessing will afford.
