Tune: Gwalchmai
('King of glory, King of peace')
Psalm 48 parts
*********
As we have heard, so have we
Seen it, so be
The greatness of your city
Mount Zion, see
Jerusalem on this mount
Is built, a fount
Of blessing, there the LORD great
[Of] Royal estate
God will establish it e'er
It shall fail ne'er
We have thought of your mercy
Loving, kind, free
In the midst of your temple
And there we call
Unto you, as is your praise
Your name [is] the same
Your praise is unto earth's ends
Each to you tends
Out of every nation
You Holy One
Your hands full of righteousness
With them you bless
So let Mount Zion rejoice
Make her your choice
Walk about Zion, and tell
Her buildings well
Her defences, palaces
Beautiful this
Tell to next generation
Each daughter, son
That He is our God life-long
He be our song
