565 The Hill of Zion

Tune: B. F. White, 1859

Words: Isaac Watts, 1707

Meter: Short Meter (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 our songs abound,
And ev’ry tear be dry;
We’re marching through Immanuel’s ground,
To fairer worlds on high.
