Lyics

UNSHAKEN as the sacred hill,

And fixed as mountains be,

Firm as a rock the soul shall rest,

That leans, O Lord, on thee.



Not walls nor hills could guard so well

Old Salem's happy ground,

As those eternal arms of love

That every saint surround.



Deal gently, Lord, with souls sincere,

And lead them safely on

To the bright gates of Paradise,

Where Christ, their Lord, is gone.
