1Beautiful Zion, built above,Beautiful city that I love,Beautiful gates of pearly white,Beautiful temple, God its light. 2Beautiful trees forever there,Beautiful fruit they always bear,Beautiful rivers gliding by,Beautiful fountains never dry. 3Beautiful crowns on every brow,Beautiful palms the conquerors show,Beautiful robes the ransomed wear,Beautiful all who enter there.

1More love to thee, O Christ, more love to thee!Hear thou the prayer I make on bended knee.This is my earnest plea: More love, O Christ, to thee;more love to thee, more love to thee! 2Once earthly joy I craved, sought peace and rest;now thee alone I seek, give what is best.This all my prayer
