by Unknown

Go, walk about Zion and measure the length,

Her walls and her bulwarks mark well;

Contemplate her palaces, glorious in strength,

Her towers and their pinnacles tell.

Then say to your children:—“Our stronghold is tried,

This God is our God to the end;

His people for ever his counsels shall guide,

His arm shall for ever defend.”

James Montgomery.
