Music by: Joseph L. Roby (1914)
Tune: BEAUTIFUL ZION · 8.8.8.8 with refrain
Scripture: Hebrews 12:22-23

Verse 1

Beautiful Zion, built above,
Beautiful city that I love,
Beautiful gates of pearly white,
Beautiful temple, God its light.

Verse 2

Beautiful trees forever there,
Beautiful fruit they always bear,
Beautiful rivers gliding by,
Beautiful fountains never dry.

Verse 3

Beautiful crowns on every brow,
Beautiful palms the conquerors show,
Beautiful robes the ransomed wear,
Beautiful all who enter there.
