Zion Stands With Hills Surrounded

Author: Kelley Hymnal: LDSC1919 #29 (1919) Lyrics: 1. Zion stands with hill surrounded— Zion, kept by pow'r divine, All her foes shall be confounded, Tho' the world in arms combine; Happy Zion, What a favored lot is thine! Happy Zion, What a favored lot is thine! 2. Ev'ry human tie may perish, Friend to friend unfaithful prove Mothers cease their own to cherish, Heav'n and earth at last remove; But no changes Can attend Jehovah’s love But no changes Can attend Jehovah’s love 3. In the furnace God may prove thee, Thence to bring thee forth more bright, But can never cease to love thee, Thou art precious in His sight; God is with thee: Thou shalt triumph in His might. God is with thee: Thou shalt triumph in His might. Languages: English Tune Title: [Zion stands with hills surrounded]

Let Zion in Her Beauty Rise

Author: Edward Partridge Hymnal: LDSC1919 #30 (1919) Lyrics: 1. Let Zion in her beauty rise, Her light begins to shine, Ere long her King will rend the skies, Majestic and devine, The Gospel spreading thro' the land, A people to prepare To meet the Lord and Enoch's band, Triumphant in the air. 2. Ye heralds, sound the Gospel trump To earth's remotest bound; Go spread the news from pole to pole, In all the nations round, That Jesus in the clouds above, With hosts of angels too, Will soon appear His Saints to save, His enemies subdue. 3. But ere that great and solemn day, The stars from heav'n shall fall, The moon be turned into blood! The water into gall; The sun with blackness will be cloth'd, All nature look afright, While men, rebellious, wicked men, Gaze trembling on the sight. 4. The earth shall reel the heavens shake, The sea move to the north, The veil shall roll up like a scroll, When God's command goes forth, The mountains sink, the valleys rise, And flow'rs adorn the plain; The islands and the continents Will then unite again. 5. The awful day will soon arrive When rebels to God's grace Will call for rocks to fall on them And hide them from His face Not so with those who keep His law; They'll joy to meet the Lord In clouds above, with those who sleep In Christ, their sure reward 6. That glorious rest will then commence, Which prophets did foretell, When Saints will reign with Christ on earth, And in his presence dwell A thousand years, O glorious day! Dear Lord, prepare my heart To stand with thee on Zion's mount, And never more to part. 7. Then when a thousand years are past, And Satan is unbound. The wicked hosts will be destroyed By fire from heaven sent down; And when the great, last change shall come To immortalize this clay Then we in the celestial world Will spend eternal day.

An Angel From On High

An angel from on high, The long, long silence broke; Descending from the sky These gracious words he spoke: Lo! in Cumorah's lonely hill, A sacred record lies concealed 2. Sealed by Moroni's hand, It has for ages lain, To wait the Lord's command, From dust to speak again. It shall again to light come forth, To usher in Christ's reign on earth. 3. It speaks of Joseph's seed, And makes the remmant known Of nations long since dead, Who once had dwelt alone. The fulness of the Gospel, too, Its pages will reveal to view. 4.

From Greenland's Icy Mountains

Author: Heber Hymnal: LDSC1919 #35 (1919) Lyrics: 1. From Greenland's icy mountains, From India's coral strand Where Afric's sunny fountains, Roll down their golden sand, From many an ancient river, From many a palmy plain, They call us to deliver Their land from error's chain. 2. What, tho' the spicy breezes Blow soft o'er Ceylon's isle; Tho' ev'ry prospect pleases, And only man is vile? In vain with lavish kindness The gifts of God are strewn; The heathen in his blindness Bows down to wood and stone. 3. Shall we, whose souls are lighted With wisdom from on high– Shall we, to men benighted, The lamp of life deny? Salvation! O salvation! The joyful sound proclaim, Till earth's remotest nation Has learned Messiah's name. 4. Waft, waft, ye winds, His story, And you, ye waters, roll, Till, like a sea of glory, It spreads from pole to pole; Till o'er our ransomed nature, The Lamb for sinners slain, Redeemer, King, Creator, In bliss returns to reign.
