Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 22 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How glorious Sion’s courts appear, the city of our God! His throne he hath establish'd here, here fix'd his lov'd abode. 2 Its walls, defended by his grace no pow’r shall e’er o’erthrow, salvation is its bulwark sure against th’ assailing foe. 3 Lift up the everlasting gates, the doors wide open fling; enter, ye nations, who obey the statutes of our King. 4 Here shall ye taste unmingled joys, and dwell in perfect peace, ye, who have known Jehovah’s name, and trusted in his grace. 5 Trust in the Lord, for ever trust, and banish all your fears; strength in the Lord Jehovah dwells eternal as his years. 6 What though the wicked dwell on high, his arm shall bring them low; low as the caverns of the grave their lofty heads shall bow. 7 Along the dust shall then be spread their tow’rs, that brave the skies: on them needy’s feet shall tread, and on their ruins rise.
