Zion Marching On song lyrics

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.

We're marching to Zion,

beautiful, beautiful Zion;

we're marching upward to Zion,

the beautiful city of God.

who never knew our God;

but children of the heavenly King,

but children of the heavenly King

may speak their joys abroad,

may speak their joys abroad.

(Refrain)

a thousand sacred sweets

before we reach the heavenly fields,

before we reach the heavenly fields,

or walk the golden streets,

or walk the golden streets.

(Refrain)

and every tear be dry;

we're marching through Emmanuel's ground,

we're marching through Emmanuel's ground,

to fairer worlds on high,

to fairer worlds on high.

(Refrain)
