Hello everyone. I was going through my Trinity Psalter-Hymnal today and discovered that while the Psalter attached Ps. 134 to Old Hundredth, it butchered the text to the nth degree. What is the most faithful long meter setting of Ps. 134 you know of? I made this one today. I tried to stick to the KJV closely. I had Old Hundredth in mind when arranging it.

1Be-hold bless ye the LORD our God
all ye the servants of the LORD
which by the night stand in his house
in the house of the LORD our God
2Lift your hands in the sacred place
And there within bless ye the LORD
3The LORD that made the heav’ns and earth
May he bless thee out of Zi-on

I italicized every part I edited or added from the KJV. I also substituted sanctuary for sacred place based on what I read about the definition of the Hebrew phrase.
