Built by the living God,
For all of ev'ry nation,
Who seek that grand abode.
Chorus:
O Sion, Sion,
I long thy gates to see:
O Sion, Sion,
When shall I dwell in thee?
2 A city with foundations,
Firm as th' eternal throne,
Nor wars, nor desolations
Shall ever move a stone. [Chorus]
3 No night is there, no sorrow,
No death, and no decay;
No yesterday, no morrow,--
But one eternal day. [Chorus]
4 Within its pearly portals,
Angelic armies sing,
With glorified immortals,
The praises of its King. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [There is a habitation]
There Is a Habitation
