Zion, to Thy Savior Singing (EN 4223)

EN 4223 Zion, to Thy Savior Singing

John.6.58

Versi Version 1

1

Zion, to Thy Savior singing,

To thy Prince and Shepherd bringing,

Sweetest hymns of love and praise,

Thou wilt never reach the measure

Of His worth, by all the treasure

Of thy most ecstatic lays.

2

Of all wonders that can thrill thee,

And, with adoration fill thee,

What than this can greater be,

That Himself to thee He giveth?

He that eateth ever liveth,

For the Bread of Life is He.

3

Fill thy lips to overflowing

With sweet praise, His mercy showing

Who this heav’nly table spread:

On this day so glad and holy,

To each longing spirit lowly

Giveth He the living Bread.

4

Here the King hath spread His table,

Whereon eyes of faith are able

Christ our Passover to trace:

Shadows of the law are going,

Light and life and truth inflowing,

Night to day is giving place.

5

Lo, this angels’ food descending

Heavenly love is hither sending,

Hungry lips on earth to feed:

So the paschal lamb was given,

So the manna came from Heaven,

Isaac was His type indeed.

6

O Good Shepherd, Bread life giving,

Us, Thy grace and life receiving,

Feed and shelter evermore;

Thou on earth our weakness guiding,

We in Heav’n with Thee abiding,

With all saints will Thee adore.
