Arise O Glorious Zion

Author: W. G. Mills Hymnal: Latter-Day Saints Congregational Hymns #7 (1919) First Line: Arise, O glorious Zion Lyrics: 1. Arise, O glorious Zion, Thou joy of latter days, Whom countless Saints rely on To gain a resting place; Arise and shine in splendor, Amid the world’s deep night, For God, thy sure defender, Is now thy life and light Arise and shine in splendor, Amid the world’s deep night; For God, thy sure defender, Is now thy life and light. 2. Let faithful Saints be rearing The city of our Lord, On mountain tops appearing, According to His word– A sought-out habitation, By men of truth of faith– A covert of salvation From ignorance and death. A sought-out habitation, By men of truth of faith– A covert of salvation From ignorance and death. 3. The Temple long expected Shall stand on Zion’s hill, By willing hearts erected, Who love Jehovah’s will; Let earth, her wealth bestowing, Adorn His holy seat, For nations great shall flow in, To worship at His feet. Let earth, her wealth bestowing, Adorn His holy seat, For nations great shall flow in, To worship at His feet. 4. O grant, Eternal Father, That we may faithful be, By all the just to gather, And Thy salvation see! Then, with the hosts of heaven, We’ll sing the immortal theme– To Him be glory given. Whose blood did us redeem. Then with the hosts of heaven, We’ll sing the immortal theme– To Him be glory given. Whose blood did us redeem. Languages: English Tune Title: [Arise, O glorious Zion]

Arise, O Glorious Zion

Author: William G. Mills, 1822–1895 Hymnal: Hymns of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints #40 (1985) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1. Arise, O glorious Zion, Thou joy of latter days, Whom countless Saints rely on To gain a resting place. Arise and shine in splendor Amid the world’s deep night, For God, thy sure defender, Is now thy life and light. 2. From Zion’s favored dwelling The gospel issues forth, The covenant revealing To gather all the earth; And Saints, the message bringing To all the sons of men, With the redeemed shall, singing, To Zion come again. 3. Thru painful tribulation We walk the narrow road And battle with temptation To gain the blest abode. But patient, firm endurance, With glory in our view, The Spirit’s bright assurance Will bring us conq’rors through. 4. Oh, grant, Eternal Father, That we may faithful be, With all the just to gather, And thy salvation see! Then, with the hosts of heaven, We’ll sing th’immortal theme: To him be glory given Whose blood did us redeem.

J. A. P. Schulz

1747 - 1800 Person Name: J. A. P. Schultz Composer of "[Arise, O glorious Zion]" in Latter-Day Saints Congregational Hymns Johann Abraham Peter Schulz Germany 1747-1800. Born at Luneburg, Germany, son of a baker, he attended St Michaelis school in Luneburg and studied organ, then the Johanneum from 1759-1764. In 1765 he was a student of composer, Johann Kimberger, and then taught in Berlin himself. In 1768 Kimberger recommended Schulz for the position of music teacher and accompanist to the Polish Princess Sapieha Woiwodin von Smolensk. Schulz moved to Berlin and traveled with her for three years performing throughout Europe, where he came in contact with many new musical ideas. He married Catharina Maria Gercken, and they had a daughter, Celle. He served as the conductor of the French Theatre in Berlin from 1776-1780. From 1786-1787 he was the Kapellmeister of Prince Henry in Rheinsberg. He began writing operas in 1785 and became musical director of the Berlin French theatre. Schulz went on to serve as Court Kapellmeister in Copenhagen from 1787-1795 before returning to Berlin. In Copenhagen the music library burned down, and he had a breakdown in health from trying to save it. His health suffered further from the effects of a shipwreck he experienced in 1796. Schulz wrote seven operas, stage music, oratorios, and cantatas, as well as piano pieces, folk songs, and church music. He also wrote articles on music theory for Johann Georg Sulzer’s ‘Allgemeine Theorie der schonen Kunste’ in four volumes. He died at Schwedt an der Oder, Germany. John Perry
