Text: | We're Marching to Zion |
Tune: | [Come, ye that love the Lord] |
Composer: | R. Lowry |
1 Come, ye that love the Lord,
And let your joys be known,
Join in a song with sweet accord,
Join in a song with sweet accord,
While ye surround the throne,
While ye surround the throne.
Chorus:
We're marching to Zion,
Beautiful, beautiful Zion,
We're marching upward to Zion,
The beautiful city of God.
2 Let those refuse to sing
Who never know our God;
But servants of the heav'nly King,
But servants of the heav'nly King,
May speak their joys abroad,
May speak their joys abroad. [Chorus]
3 The hill of Zion yields
A thousand sacred sweets,
Before we reach the heav'nly fields,
Before we reach the heav'nly fields,
Or walk the golden streets,
Or walk the golden streets. [Chorus]
4 Then let our songs abound,
And every tear be dry;
We're marching thro' Immanuel's ground,
We're marching thro' Immanuel's ground,
To fairer worlds on high,
To fairer worlds on high. [Chorus]
