220 Mount Zion (Second)

Words: Isaac Watts, 1707

Music: Bartholomew Brown, 1792

Meter: Short Meter Double (6,6,8,6,6,6,8,6)

The hill of Zion yields,
A thousand sacred sweets,
Before we reach the heav’nly fields,
Or walk the golden streets.
Then let your songs abound,
And ev’ry tear be dry:
We’re marching through Immanuel’s ground,
To fairer worlds on high.
