Glorious Things Are Sung of Zion

Author: William W. Phelps, 1792–1872 Hymnal: LDS1985 #48 (1985) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1. Glorious things are sung of Zion, Enoch’s city seen of old, Where the righteous, being perfect, Walked with God in streets of gold. Love and virtue, faith and wisdom, Grace and gifts were all combined. As himself each loved his neighbor; All were one in heart and mind. 2. There they shunn’d the pow’r of Satan And observed celestial laws; For in Adam-ondi-Ahman Zion rose where Eden was. When beyond the pow’r of evil, So that none could covet wealth, One continual feast of blessings Crown’d their days with peace and health. 3. Then the tow’rs of Zion glittered Like the sun in yonder skies, And the wicked stood and trembled, Filled with wonder and surprise. Then their faith and works were perfect; Lo, they followed their great Head! So the city went to heaven, And the world said, “Zion’s fled!” 4. When the Lord returns with Zion, And we hear the watchman cry, Then we’ll surely be united, And we’ll all see eye to eye. Then we’ll mingle with the angels, And the Lord will bless his own. Then the earth will be as Eden, And we’ll know as we are known.

Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken

Author: John Newton, 1725–1807 Hymnal: LDS1985 #46 (1985) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1. Glorious things of thee are spoken, Zion, city of our God! He whose word cannot be broken Chose thee for his own abode. On the Rock of Ages founded, What can shake our sure repose? With salvation’s wall surrounded, Thou may’st smile on all thy foes. 2. See! the streams of living waters, Springing from celestial love, Well supply thy sons and daughters And all fear of drought remove. Round each habitation hov’ring, See the cloud and fire appear For a glory and a cov’ring, Showing that the Lord is near. 3. Blest inhabitants of Zion, Purchased by the Savior’s blood; Jesus, whom their souls rely on, Makes them kings and priests to God. While in love his Saints he raises, With himself to reign as King, All, as priests, his solemn praises For thank-off’rings freely bring.
