Ascending to Zion

Am I ever ascending to Zion?
Am I oft to lift my eyes
and see the glory of Your Splendor
where truth, my treasure lies?

as I on this pilgrim journey
learn to let my burdens go
I take with me only
daily bread and living water
by these provisions I am fed

be my center on this journey
for this world I’ll one day leave
and onto glory of the Father, Son and Spirit
I will cleave

What is this mystery?
How can three be one?
How can I with them unite
Great is the oneness
Great is the sight

as I come my soul uplifted
all my burdens cast aside
My Savior-Father-Spirit-
with me do abide.

I can barely grasp the concepts
My mind is bent on things above
but here I long do sit and ponder
on all my Father gives in love

Thy Word is Truth! Thy Word is Light
Undimmed by cloud or age:
Thy Son of Love–clear, spotless, bright–
Gilds every glowing page.

Thy Word is Truth! ‘Tis here Thy grace
Shines forth amid the night:
A star to guide our wandering race,
By faith, to perfect sight.

Thy Word is Truth! Men come and go;
Age follows mortal youth;
Thy Word, Thyself, no change can know,
Both are Eternal Truth.
