Like Zion's Steadfast Mount Are They

Author: Anonymous Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 8 hymnals Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal Lyrics: 1. Like Zion’s steadfast mount are they Who in the Lord confide; Secure, immovable they stand, Forever to abide. 2. As round about Jerusalem The mountains give defense, Jehovah is His people’s guard, Their lasting confidence. 3. No tyrant’s scepter o’er the good Shall undisturbed abide, Lest righteous men, oppressed by wrong, To evil turn aside. 4. O Thou Jehovah, to the good Thy goodness now impart, Thy lovingkindness show to them That upright are in heart. 5. All those that turn from righteousness With wayward, wand’ring feet, With sinners God will lead them forth, The sinner’s doom to meet. 6. O Thou who art Thy people’s shield, Their helper and their guide, Upon them let Thy grace and peace Forevermore abide. Used With Tune: ST. ANDREW (Tans'ur) Text Sources: From The Psalter (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania: The United Presbyterian Board of Publication, 1912, number 354
