Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken

1Glorious things of thee are spoken,
Zion, city of our God;
He whose word cannot be broken
Formed thee for His own abode;

RefrainOn the Rock of Ages founded,
What can shake thy sure repose?
With salvation's wall surrounded,
Thou mayst smile at all thy foes.

2See the streams of living waters
Springing from eternal love,
Well supply thy sons and daughters,
And all fear and want remove;

3Round each habitation hovering,
See the cloud and fire appear
For a glory and a covering,
Showing that the Lord is near;

4Savior, if of Zion's city
I, through grace, a member am,
Let the world deride or pity,
I will glory in Thy name;
