1.Zion stand with walls surrounded,Zion, kept by pow'r divine:All her foes shall be comfounded,Though the world in arms combine:Happy Zion,What a favored lot is thine!2.Ev'ry human tie may perish;Friend to friend unfaithful prove;Mothers cease their own to cherish;Heav'n and earth at last remove:But no changesCan attend Jehovah's love.3.In the furnace God may prove thee,Thence to bring thee forth more bright;But can never cease to love thee:Thou art precious in his sight:God is with thee,God, thine everlasting light.
