The Lord is Zion's King;

by William Gadsby·1814·Meter 6.6.8.6 (SM)

Based on Jer 8:19; Ps 2:6; Zech 9:9

1

The Lord is Zion's King;
Let Zion in him trust;
'Midst friends and foes his goodness sing,
And of his mercy boast.

2

He rules on Zion's hill,
With laws of peace and grace,
Laws that bespeak his kindness still,
And human pride abase.

3

Let saints his sceptre own;
His righteous laws obey;
Acknowledge him the Lord alone,
And walk the heavenly way.
