1 Lo! on Sion's holy mountain,
Stands the Lamb of God Most High,
While around him all the guileless
Chant His praise eternally.
2 On their foreheads, pure and spotless,
Shines the Father's awful Name;
And these Saints, so bright and glorious,
Out of tribulation came.
3 Onward, onward, ever onward!
Follow they the Lamb Most High,
Wheresoever Jesus goeth,
Nigh to Him, for ever nigh.
4 Shepherd kind, we too would follow;
We are Thine, our Leader be,
Give us holy perseverance,
That Thy Glory we may see.
5 So on Sion's holy mountain,
In the dear Land far away,
With all pure and guileless spirits
We may dwell in endless day.
6 Onward, onward, ever onward,
Following Thee, O Christ Most High,
Wheresoever, Lord, Thou goest,
Nigh to Thee, for ever nigh.
Amen.
