Kota Sion Kota Allah (KRI 290)

KRI 290 Kota Sion Kota Allah

Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken

John Newton

Franz Joseph Haydn

1=F 4/4

Versi Version 1

Besar, Perkasa dan mulia, O Sion, kota Allah,

Kau dibangun oleh Dia, sumber firman yang benar,

Tak berguncang, kokoh, teguh, Batu Karang dasarmu,

Kes'lamatan benteng kotamu, musuhmu gentar dan rebah.

Umat Tuhan ditudungi, awan pekat dan api,

Tuhan Allah dalam mulia, turun dekat padamu,

B'ri naungan pada siang, b'ri terang pada malam,

Dengan manna Kau s'slamatkan umat-Mu yang berdoa.

Umat Tuhan, dibasuh-Nya dalam darah Penebus,

Bernaung di kota Sion, jiwanya sandar Yesus,

Dia jadikan umat kudus, Imamat yang Rajani,

Puji syukur, penuh kasih pada Tuhan diberi.

S'bab anugrah Jurus'lamat, ku jadi warga surga,

Walau dunia menekanku, kan ku puji nama-Mu,

Isi dunia dan congkaknya, hilang lenyap dan musnah,

Sukacita, harta kekal, ku tau jadi milikku.

Versi Version 2

Glorious things of thee are spoken,

Zion, city of our God!

He, whose Word cannot be broken,

Formed thee for His own abode;

On the Rock of Ages founded,

What can shake thy sure repose?

With salvation's walls surrounded,

Thou mayest smile at all thy foes.

Round each habitation hov'ring,

See the cloud and fire appear,

For a glory and a cov'ring,

Showing that the Lord is near;

Thus deriving from our banner

Light by night and shade by day,

Safe they feed upon the manna,

Which He gives them when they pray.

Saviour, if of Zion's city,

I through grace a member am,

Let the world deride or pity,

I will glory in Thy name;

Fading is the worldling's pleasure,

All his boasted pomp and show;

Solid joys and lasting treasure,

None but Zion's children know.
