Glorious Things of You Are Spoken Songtext

von Emu Music

Glorious things of you are spoken
Zion, city of our God
He whose word cannot be broken
Formed you for his own abode
On the Rock of Ages founded
What can shake your sure repose?
With salvation's walls surrounded
You may smile at all your foes

See, the streams of living waters
Springing from eternal love
Well supply your sons and daughters
And all fear of want remove
Who can faint while such a river
Ever flows their thirst to fade?
Grace which like the Lord, the Giver

Never fails from age to age

Blessed inhabitants of Zion
Washed in the Redeemer's blood!
Jesus, whom your souls rely on
Makes them priests and kings to God
Ne'er again will be a barrier
All the guilt and stain are gone

Free to walk beside the Saviour
In the glory of the Lord

Saviour since of Zion city
I through grace a member am
Let the world condemn or pity
I will glory in your Name
Fading is the worldly pleasure
All its weak pretence and show
Solid joys and lasting treasure
None but those of Zion know
Fading is the worldly pleasure
All its weak pretence and show
Solid joys and lasting treasure
None but those of Zion know
