We're Marching To Zion

This hymn was written by Isaac Watts as a stab at his critics who had actually split from churches who sang his "human composed" hymns. Prior to this time, churches only sang hymns from the Psalms.

verse 2

Let those refuse to sing,
Who never knew our God;
But children of the heavenly King,
But children of the heavenly King,
May speak their joys abroad
May speak their joys abroad.

verse 3

Then let our songs abound 
And every tear be dry;
We're marching thru Emmanuel's ground,
We're marching thru Emmanuel's ground
To fairer worlds on high,
To fairer worlds on high.
