1 UPON the hills of holiness
He his foundation sets.
2 God, more than Jacob's dwellings all,
Delights in Zion's gates.
3 Things glorious are said of thee,
Thou city of the Lord.
4 Rahab and Rahel I as those
That know me will record;
Lo, Tyrns, and with it the land
Where dwells the Philistine,
And likewise Ethiopia;
This one was born therein.
5 Of Zion shall be said, This man
And that man born was there;
And he that is the Lord most high
Himself shall stablish her.
6 When God the people writes, he'll count
That this man born was there.
7 The singers as the players say,
My well-springs in thee are.
BIBLE PASSAGE:
1 ¶ His foundation is in the holy mountains.
2 The LORD loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.
3 Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. Selah.
4 ¶ I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon to them that know me: behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this man was born there.
5 And of Zion it shall be said, This and that man was born in her: and the highest himself shall establish her.
6 The LORD shall count, when he writeth up the people, that this man was born there. Selah.
7 As well the singers as the players on instruments shall be there: all my springs are in thee.
