Lyrics
———

Zion is a place of singing.
Zion is a place of joy.
Zion is the dwelling of the Lord.
Zion is a place of worship.
Zion is a place of praise.
Zion is the dwelling of the Lord.

So let us climb the hill of Zion,
To the city of the living God.
To the city of the living God.
To the city of the living God.
So let us climb the hill of Zion,
To the city of the living God.
For the ark of the testimony is in our midst.
