Zion Hill

The Lord is my shepherd
green pastures still water
goodness and mercy
all the days of my life

When David was king of Ancient Israel
he marched up to Jerusalem and captured Zion Hill
Zion Hill

Then when Solomon was king of Ancient Israel
he built a beautiful palace and a famous temple
on Zion Hill
(Zion Hill Zion Hill
city of the Great King David
Jerusalem Zion Hill)

And for hundreds of years the temple cymbals rang
yes for many generations the temple choir sang
on Zion Hill

Til a mighty army came from old Babylon
and took away the people and tore the buildings down
on Zion Hill
(Zion Hill Zion Hill
city of the Great King David
Jerusalem Zion Hill)

And so desolation came upon Jerusalem
and jackals prowled the rubble and howled at the wind
on Zion Hill

Then one day Nehemiah came back and built a wall
and old Ezra the scholar stood up and read the law
on Zion Hill
(Zion Hill Zion Hill
city of the Great King David
Jerusalem Zion Hill)
