Hymnal: Voices of Praise #104 (1883) Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of thee are spoken
Zion, city of our God;
He, whose word cannot be broken,
Form'd thee for His own abode;
On the Rock of Ages founded,
What can shake thy sure repose?
With salvation's walls surrounded,
Thou may'st smile at all thy foes.
2 See, the streams of living waters,
Springing from eternal love,
Well supply thy sons and daughters,
And all fear of want remove;
Who can faint, while such a river
Ever flows their thirst t'assuage?
Grace, which like the Lord, the Giver,
Never falls from age to age.
3 Round each habitation hovering,
See the cloud and fire appear,
For a glory and a covering,
Showing that the Lord is near.
Blest inhabitants of Zion,
Wash'd in the Redeemer's blood!
Jesus, whom our souls rely on,
Makes them kings and priests to God.
Amen. Topics: The Church Her Ordinances and Offices Languages: English Tune Title: AUSTRIA
