(Inspired by Psalm 87)
This one and that one will go up to Zion
This one and that one will stand on the hill
This one will light the lamp; the city will stand out
That one will sing a song and blow the horn
They will raise the banner of truth
They will sing a song of righteousness
This one and that one will shout to the Lord.
Mount Zion stands out, a mountain lit with lamps;
The city of our God.
Glorious things are spoken of you; your light will not grow dim.
The Lord’s voice shall be heard afar and near
His voice shall resound uphill and to the ends of the earth.
He knows His people; He numbers and calls them by name
They shall increase and not decrease.
