Tune: SDAH 449
♦-1-♦
There is a place of truth and light,
Zion city of God;
All people there will know the Lord,
There will be much delight.
♦-Refrain-♦
The Lord will choose Jerusalem,
And Zion will get a new name,
And we His Church He’ll purify,
We’ll never, never dwell in sin.
What! Never dwell in sin?
No, never dwell in sin.
What! Never dwell in sin?
No, never dwell in sin.
His precious name He’ll glorify,
We’ll never, never dwell in sin.
♦-2-♦
Upon this earth judgment He brings,
Henceforth God takes the reins,
The first of first fruits He then gains,
And ox-plow stage begins.
♦-3-♦
One shepherd, David, will then rule,
He’s one of the living,
God’s simple means, visible king,
With the Rod as his tool.
TN8: 81.1-2; Series page: SRS 173:
“How long,” says the Lord, “wilt thou go about, O thou backsliding daughter? for the Lord hath created a new thing in the earth, A woman shall compass a man.” Jer. 31:22. This “woman” must be symbolical, for no one person can possibly encompass another. She must, for this reason, be a symbol of the church, and the “man” must be Christ, Who shall at that time “have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion” — purified the church (Isa. 4:4; Testimonies Vol. 5 p. 80). Then will He “be unto her a wall of fire round about, and will be the glory in the midst of her and…will dwell in the midst of her. Zech. 2:5, 11.
