Glorious things of thee are spoken,
Zion, city of our God!

What can shake thy sure repose?
With salvation’s walls surrounded,
Thou mayest smile at all thy foes.

Verse 2

See! the streams of living waters,
Springing from eternal love,
Well supply thy sons and daughters,
And all fear of want 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.

Verse 3

Round each habitation hovering,
See the cloud and tire 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.
