1 Lá nos cumes das montanhas
A Sião de Deus está:
Quem quiser lhe dar combate,
No final perecerá
Sião bendita, Sião bendita,
Proteção de Deus terá.

2 Mesmo que os homens falsos
Te recusem seu amor.
Tu, Sião, serás louvada,
Com impávido valor;
Sião não muda, Sião não muda,
Pois a luz tem do Senhor.

3 Por teu Deus serás provada
E mais luz receberás:
Ele não te abandona
Ao furor das gentes más.
Deus te protege, Deus te protege,
Deus te dá amor e paz.
