Psalm 87

UPon the holy mountains Gods
foundations do abide.
God Zions gates loves, more then all
Jacobs dwellings beside.
Exceeding great and glorious things
reported are abroad,
Of thy great name Jerusalem,
thou city of our God.

Rahab, and Babylon, with Tyre,
and Cush, and Palestine,
To those that know thee will I name,
that these converts of thine
Were born in them; of Zion too
it shall be said, these men
Were born in her: the high'st himself
shall her establish then.

Yea, when God shall his own record,
thus shall his reck'ning be,
Of any man amongst them nam'd,
in Zion born was he.
Both singers and the players on
instruments there shall be,
My springs of graces and of joys,
and comforts are in thee.
