From Zi­on, per­fect­ion of beau­ty,
From Zi­on, the joy of the earth,
The light and the glo­ry of Heav­en
Are stream­ing un­ceas­ing­ly forth.

Refrain

From Zi­on, fair Zi­on, the love­ly
A heav’n­ly bril­lian­cy beams;
The light of the Sun of all beau­ty,
Upon a be­night­ed world streams.

His life is the hope of His people,
And fond­ly we walk in the light;
And as we go on to per­fect­ion,
It grows ev­ery moment more bright.

Refrain

Shine forth on the dark­ened, O Jesus!
On them, Sun of right­eous­ness, rise!
Till from ev­ery tribe of all peo­ple
Thy prais­es as­cend to the skies.
