Ted Donnelly said he sang a version of this psalm almost every Sunday before church for years and years. The Sermon Audio version of his sermon on this psalm is worth listening to. It's entitled "I Was Glad When They Said Unto Me, Let Us Go Into the House of the Lord".

PSALM 122 8 7 8 7

1 “To the LORD’s house!” they were calling,
and with joy I went with them.
2 Now at last our feet are standing
in your gates, Jerusalem.

3 See, Jerus’lem, like a city
built compactly, close and strong.
4 That is where the tribes assemble,
tribes which to the LORD belong.

To the LORD’s name praise they offer,
as for Israèl decreed.
5 There are set the thrones for judgment,
thrones of David’s royal seed.

6 Pray for Zion’s peace and safety:
“May your friends securely dwell;
7 Peace within your walls continue,
strength within your citadel.”

8 For the sake of friends and brothers,
“Peace be in you,” I will say.
9 For the sake of our God’s temple,
I seek your prosperity.
