Psalm 133 Behold the Goodness of Our Lord

1.  Behold the goodness of our Lord,
    How blest it is to be 
    A company of God's beloved,
    In holy unity.

2.  Like precious oil upon the head,
    A healing for our strife,
    It flows throughout our common bond,
    Refreshing all of life.

3.  As dew on Zion's mountaintop
    Brings freshness to its door,
    Our Lord commands this in our midst
    And brings life evermore.
