Enquire, ye pilgrims, for the way, That lead's to Sion's hill, And thither set your steady face, With a determin'd will.

Invite the strangers all around Your pious march to join; And spread the sentiments you feel Of faith and love divine.

O come, and to his temple haste, And seek his favour there; Before his footstool humbly bow, And pour your fervent prayer!

O come, and join your souls to God In everlasting bands. Accept the blessings he bestows, With thankful hearts and hands.
