From Jerusalem

From Jerusalem like a mighty Lion,
Shall come His voice out of Zion,
As the heavens and earth shake,
But His people need not quake.

He is always the strength and hope
Of Israel's children as they cope
In a world of sin and living threat,
But doom will pose never a fret.

In His hands shall the faithful rest
And in His heart,the chosen best,
But all who fail to know His name
Shall feel His wrath and their shame.

He is just and our loving Sovereign,
Who knows that we are all brethren,
So He forgives us within His grace
To take us home to His holy Place.
