lyrics

As we walk t’ward the mountain
O the wind and rain’re howling
And all history is scowling as we go
Amidst all the beef and cussing
And all the strife and fussing
And all the wretched hustling down the road

As we gather to the mountain
gather to the mountain
gather to the Maker of us all
Our disputes’ll all be settled
And we’ll hammer down our metals
And make spades to keep the garden ever more

As we stand there round it’s base
Alongside some we used to hate
And also some we used to quietly ignore
And those that we had wronged
And all those who suffered long
And maybe those who left us bleeding on the floor

Well if we’re headed down to Zion
To make peace before Messiah
Don’t make sense for us to argue all the way
We are sisters, we are brothers
Lets make peace here with each other
An d Messiah journey with us all this day
