Lofty Hills of Moab

M. Lowrie Hofford • English

Primary Scripture: Deuteronomy 34:1

Verse 1

From the lofty hills of Moab, Where thy weary feet shall stand, Thou shalt look across the Jordan, And behold the promised land; The land of milk and honey, Fertile land of corn and wine, The land of springs and fountains,— ‘Tis the land that shall be thine.

Verse 2

From the lofty hills of Moab, Thou shalt view the prospect o’er; ‘Tis the land the Lord shall give thee, And ‘tis thine forevermore; And tho' thy eyes be dazzled With the splendor of the sight, Thy heart shall turn with rapture To the scene of pure delight.

Verse 3

From the lofty hills of Moab, It is sweet indeed to rise To the higher land of promise, To the Canaan of the skies; The land of heavenly glory, Land of beauty all divine, The land of many mansions, That forever shall be thine.
