ETERNAL LIFE
We're marching to Zion
Beautiful, beautiful Zion,
We're marching upward to Zion
The beautiful city of God
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.
Let those refuse to sing
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.
The hill of Zion yields
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.
Then let our songs abound,
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.

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.

Refrain
We're marching to Zion (We're marching to Zion)
Beautiful, beautiful Zion,
We're marching upward to Zion
The beautiful city of God

Let those refuse to sing 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.

The hill of Zion yields 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.

Then let our songs abound, 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.
