Zion, Founded on the Mountains

Verse 1

Zion, founded on the mountains, God, Thy Maker, loves thee well; He has chosen thee, most precious, He delights in thee to dwell; God's own city, who can all thy glory tell?

Verse 2

Heathen lands and hostile peoples soon shall come the LORD to know; nations born again in Zion shall the Lord's salvation show; God Almighty shall on Zion strength bestow.

Verse 3

When the LORD shall count the nations, sons and daughters He shall see, born to endless life in Zion, and their joyful song shall be: "Blessed Zion, all our fountains are in thee."
