Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised

1
Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised,
  In the city of our God,
  In the mountain of His holiness.
Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth,
  Is Mount Zion, on the sides of the north,
    The city of the great King.
  Is Mount Zion, on the sides of the north,
    The city of the great King.

I learnt this song from my Parents while growing up in Northern Nigeria. My Dad really loves this song and the picture of my Dad singing this song during Family devotions keeps coming to mind as I sing this song. #GreatIsTheLord

Praise God that this hymn writer understands the importance of Zion to God, the center of the earth, the pinnacle of His kingdom to come here. The city of the only true King, Jesus.
