237. The Church of God

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?
God's own city,
Who can all thy glory tell?

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,
God Almighty,
Shall on Zion strength bestow.

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,
Blessed Zion,
All our fountains are in thee."
