Verse 1
Come, we that love the Lord,
and let our joys be known;
Join in a song with sweet accord,
join in a song with sweet accord,
and thus surround the throne,
and thus surround the throne.
Chorus
We’re marching to Zion,
beautiful, beautiful Zion;
We’re marching upward to Zion,
the beautiful city of God.
Verse 2
Let those refuse to sing
who never knew our God;
But children of the heav’nly King,
but children of the heav’nly King,
may speak their joys abroad,
may speak their joys abroad.
Verse 3
The hill of Zion yields
a thousand sacred sweets,
Before we reach the heav’nly fields,
before we reach the heav’nly fields,
or walk the golden streets,
or walk the golden streets.
Verse 4
Then let our songs abound,
and ev'ry tear be dry;
We’re marching through Immanuel’s ground,
we’re marching through Immanuel’s ground,
to fairer worlds on high,
to fairer worlds on high.
