Glorious Things Of Thee Are Spoken,
Zion, City Of Our God!
He, Whose Word Can Not Be Broken,
Formed Thee For His Own Abode:
On The Rock Of Ages Founded,
What Can Shake Thy Sure Repose?
With Salvation’s Wall Surrounded,
Thou Mayst Smile At All Thy Foes.

See The Streams Of Living Waters,
Springing From Eternal Love,
Well Supply Thy Sons And Daughters,
And All Fear Of Drought Remove:
Who Can Faint While Such A River
Ever Flows Their Thirst T’ Assuage!
Grace, Which Like The Lord, The Giver,
Never Fails From Age To Age.

Round Each Habitation Hovering,
See The Cloud And Fire Appear,
For A Glory And A Covering,
Showing That The Lord Is Near:
Thus Deriving From Their Banner
Light By Night, And Shade By Day,
Safe They Feed Upon The Manna
Which He Gives Them When They Pray.

Blest Inhabitants Of Zion,
Washed In The Redeemer’s Blood,
Jesus, Whom Their Souls Rely On,
Makes Them Kings And Priests To God:
’Tis His Love His People Raises
With Himself To Reign As Kings;
And, As Priests, His Solemn Praises
Each For A Thank-Offering Brings.

Saviour, Since Of Zion’s City,
I Through Grace A Member Am,
Let The World Deride Or Pity,
I Will Glory In Thy Name:
Fading Is The Worldling’s Treasure,
All His Boasted Pomp And Show!
Solid Joys And Lasting Pleasure
None But Zion’s Children Know.
