Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken

Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Appears in 1,300 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of thee are spoken, Zion, city of our God; He whose word cannot be broken Formed thee for His own abode: On the Rock of Ages founded, What can shake thy sure repose? With salvation's walls surrounded, Thou mayst smile at all thy foes. 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, when such a river Ever flows thy thirst to asswage? Grace which, like the Lord, the Giver, Never fails from age to age. 3 Round each habitation hov'ring, See the clouds and fire appear; For a glory and a cov'ring, Showing that the Lord is near! Glorious things of Thee are spoken, Zion, city of our God; He whose word cannot be broken Formed thee for His own abode: Topics: Church of Christ Used With Tune: AUSTRIAN HYMN

Glorious Things Are Sung of Zion

Appears in 16 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Glorious things are sung of Zion, Enoch's city seen of old, Where the righteous, being perfect, Walked with God in streets of gold. Love and virtue, faith and wisdom, Grace and gifts were all combined; As himself each loved his neighbor; All were one in heart and mind. 2. There they shunn'd the pow'r of Satan, And observed celestial laws; For in Adam-ondi-Ahman Zion rose where Eden was. When beyond the power of evil, So that none could covet wealth, One continual feast of blessings Crown’d their days with peace and health. 3. Then the towers of Zion glittered Like the sun in yonder skies, And the wicked stood and trembled, Fill'd with wonder and surprise: Then their faith and works were perfect– Lo, they followed their great Head; So the city went to heaven, And the world said, Zion's fled! 4. When the Lord returns to Zion, And we hear the watchman cry, Then we'll surely be united, And we'll all see eye to eye; Then we'll mingle with the angels, And the Lord will bless His own; Then the earth will be as Eden, And we'll know as we are known Used With Tune: [Glorious things are sung of Zion]
