And thus surround the throne,<br>

<p class="refrain">We&#8217;re marching to Zion,<br>
Beautiful, beautiful Zion;<br>
We&#8217;re marching upward to Zion,<br>
The beautiful city of God.</p>
<p>The sorrows of the mind<br>
Be banished from the place;<br>
Religion never was designed<br>
Religion never was designed,<br>
To make our pleasures less,<br>

<p>Let those that refuse to sing,<br>
Who never knew our God;<br>
But favorites of the heavenly King,<br>

May speak their joys abroad,<br>

And thunders when He please,<br>
Who rides upon the stormy sky,<br>
Who rides upon the stormy sky,<br>
And manages the seas,<br>

To that immortal state,<br>
The thoughts of such amazing bliss,<br>
The thoughts of such amazing bliss,<br>
Should constant joys create,<br>
