Zion, the city of our God
C. M.
1
Zion, the city of our God,How glorious is the place!The Savior there has his abode,And sinners see his face.
2
Firm against every adverse shockIts mighty bulwarks prove;'T is built upon the living Rock,And walled around with love.
3
There all the fruits of glory grow,And joys that never die;And streams of grace and knowledge flow,The soul to satisfy.
4
Come, set your faces Zionward,The sacred road inquire;And let a union to the LordBe henceforth your desire.
5
The gospel shines to give you light,No longer, then, delay;The Spirit waits to guide you right,And Jesus is the way.
6
O Lord, regard thy people's prayer,Thy promise now fulfil;And young and old by grace prepareTo dwell on Zion's hill.
