Prepare The Way, O Zion

Author: Augustus Nelson; Frans Mikael Franzén Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #601 (1930) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.6.6 Hymnal Title: American Lutheran Hymnal First Line: Prepare the way, O Zion! Lyrics: 1 Prepare the way, O Zion! Ye awful deeps, rise high; Sink low, ye tow'ring mountains, The Lord is drawing nigh; The righteous King of glory, Foretold in sacred story. O blest is He that came In God the Father's name! 2 O Zion, He approacheth, Thy Lord and King for aye! Strew palms where He advances, Spread garments in His way. God's promise faileth never, Hosanna sound forever! O blest is He that came In God the Father's name! 3 Fling wide thy portals, Zion, And hail thy glorious King! His tidings of salvation To ev'ry people bring, Who, waiting yet in sadness, Would sing His praise with gladness. O blest is He that came In God the Father's name!
