Like Zion's city, bounded By guarding mountains broad, His people are surrounded Forever by their God. 2 No scepter of oppression Shall hold unbroken sway, Lest unto base transgression The righteous turn away. Thy favor be imparted To godly men, O Lord; Bless all that are pure-hearted, The good with good reward. 3 The men who falsehood cherish, Forsaking truth and right, With wicked ones shall perish; God will their sin requite. From sin your saints defending, Their joy, O Lord, increase, With mercy never-ending And everlasting peace. Scripture: Psalm 125 Languages: English Tune Title: KNOWHEAD
