At the hands of foul oppressors, We’ve borne and suffered long; Thou hast been our help in weakness, And Thy pow’r hath made us strong; ’Mid ruthless foes, outnumbered, In weariness we trod; [Refrain] 3. Thou hast led us here in safety, Where the mountain bulwark stands. As the guardian of the loved ones Thou hast brought from many lands: For the rock and for the river, The valley’s fertile sod; [Refrain] 4. For the shadow of Thy presence, Our camp of rock o’er-spread; For the canyon’s rugged defiles, And the beetling crags o’er-head; For the snows and for the torrents, And for our burial sod; [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [For the strength of the hills we bless Thee]

He made the sky And earth and seas, with all their train; And none shall find His promise vain. 5. His truth forever stands secure; He saves th'oppressed, he feeds the poor; He sends the troubled conscience peace, And grants the captive sweet release. 6. The Lord gives eyesight to the blind; The Lord supports the sinking mind; He helps the stranger in distress, The widow and the fatherless. 7. He loves the Saints, He knows them well, But turns the wicked down to hell: Thy God, O Zion, ever reigns– Praise him in everlasting strains.

High On the Mountain Top

Author: J. H. Johnson Hymnal: LDSC1919 #25 (1919) Lyrics: 1. High on the mountain top A banner is unfurled Ye nations now look up, It waves to all the world. In Deseret's sweet peaceful land- On Zion's mount behold it stands! 2. For God remembers still His promise made of old That he on Zion's hill Truth's standard would unfold! Her light should there attract the gaze Of all the world in latter days 3. His house shall there be reared, His glory to display, And people shall be heard In distant lands to say We'll now go up and serve the Lord, Obey His truth and learn His word.

Arise, My Soul, Arise

Hymnal: LDSC1919 #27 (1919) Lyrics: 1. Arise, my soul, arise, Shake off thy guilty fears; The bleeding sacrifice In my behalf appears; Before the throne my surety stands, My name is written on His hands. 2. He ever lives above, For me to intercede, His all redeeming love, His precious blood to plead; His blood atoned for all our race, And sprinkles now the throne of grace. 3. Five bleeding wounds He bears, Received on Calvary; They pour effectual pray'rs; They strongly speak for me; "Forgive him, oh! forgive," they cry, "nor let the ransomed sinner die!" 4. The Father hears Him pray, His dear Anointed One; He cannot turn away From His beloved Son; His Spirit answers to the blood, And tells me I am born of God. 5. To God I'm reconciled, His pard'ning voice I hear; He owns me for His child, I can no longer fear; With confidence I now draw nigh, And "Father, Abba, Father," cry.
