Church: Zion

Sing praises to the LORD, who dwells in Zion; proclaim His deeds among the nations.

Mount Zion is glad, the daughters of Judah rejoice, on account of Your judgments.

Remember Your congregation, which You purchased long ago and redeemed as the tribe of Your inheritance—Mount Zion, where You dwell.

For the LORD has chosen Zion; He has desired it for His home:

By the rivers of Babylon we sat and wept when we remembered Zion.

So the redeemed of the LORD will return and enter Zion with singing, crowned with everlasting joy. Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee.

For there will be a day when watchmen will call out on the hills of Ephraim, ‘Arise, let us go up to Zion, to the LORD our God!’”

They will ask the way to Zion and turn their faces toward it. They will come and join themselves to the LORD in an everlasting covenant that will never be forgotten.

Blow the ram’s horn in Zion; sound the alarm on My holy mountain! Let all who dwell in the land tremble, for the Day of the LORD is coming; indeed, it is near—

Blow the ram’s horn in Zion, consecrate a fast, proclaim a sacred assembly.
