Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,319 hymnals Topics: Covenant Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of you are spoken, Zion, city of our God: he whose word cannot be broken formed you for his own abode. On the Rock of Ages founded, what can shake your sure repose? With salvation's walls surrounded you may smile at all your foes. 2 See, the streams of living waters, springing from eternal love, well supply your sons and daughters and all fear of want remove: who can faint while such a river ever flows their thirst to assuage - grace, which like the Lord the giver never fails from age to age? 3 Blest inhabitants of Zion, washed in their Redeemer's blood: Jesus, whom their souls rely on, makes them kings and priests to God. For his love his people raises over self to reign as kings, and as priests, his solemn praises each for a thank-offering brings. 4 Saviour, since of Zion's city I, through grace, a member am, let the world deride or pity, I will glory in your name: fading are the worldlings' pleasures, all their boasted pomp and show; solid joys and lasting treasures none but Zion's children know.

Though I have oft my soul defiled, in love forgive, restore your child. 5 Yes, all I am and love most dearly I offer now, O Lord, to you. Oh, let me make my vows sincerely, and what I say, help me to do. Let naught within me, naught I own, serve any will but yours alone. 6 And never let my purpose falter, O Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, but keep me faithful to your altar, till you shall call me from my post. So unto you I live and die and praise you evermore on high. Scripture: Psalm 126:3 Used With Tune: NEUMARK Text Sources: Rev.: Lutheran Book of Worship, 1978; alt. 1990
