The gathering of Israel
I will gather them home
I will gather my lost sheep
Wherever they roam.

Yes I will gather them
Yes I will gather them
Yes, I will gather them home.

I will gather them home
I will gather them home.
Wherever they stray, I will gather them
Yes, I will gather them home.

We will build the city of God,
And gather the Saints,
And teach with the iron rod,
From the mountain of God.

Yes I will gather them,
Yes I will gather them,
Yes, I will gather them home.

I will gather them home,
I will gather them home.
Wherever they stray, I will gather them.
Yes, I will gather them home.

I will gather them I will gather them
I will gather them home.
I will lead them, not forsake them.
Yes, I will gather them home.

We will follow the winds of heaven
To find the scattered lights.
For a few to be the leaven
To set all things just right.

Yes I will gather them,
Yes I will gather them,
Yes, I will gather them home.

Out of Zion will go the law
As written of old;
To bring at last peace on earth
As the prophets foretold.

Yes I will gather them,
Yes I will gather them,
Yes, I will gather them home.

I will gather them home
I will gather them home.
Wherever they stray, I will gather them.
Yes, I will gather them home.

I will gather them I will gather them
I will gather them home.
I will lead them, not forsake them

Yes, I will gather them home.
I will gather them home,
I will gather them home.

Peace on earth, Goodwill to men
It's got to happen; If not, what then?
Peace on earth, Goodwill to men
Goodwill, Goodwill to men.

There will be Peace on Earth, Good will to men,
Its got to happen again, again.
Peace on earth, Goodwill to men
Goodwill to men.

There will be peace, Peace on Earth
Goodwill to men
We'll fulfill all the things our Fathers dreamed of.
Peace, Peace on earth. Goodwill to men,
The whole world will soon be filled with Love.

Love and kindness
We'll see them everywhere
Brotherhood and friendship,
The nations all will care.
They will, They will, They will.

There will be Peace on Earth and Brotherhood
Kindness all over and Sisterhood.
Once and for all its understood
We will, We will, We will,

Not forget Peace on Earth Is our one goal
Its at the heart of every soul
For a thousand years it will unfold
It will unfold.

There will be peace, Peace on Earth
Goodwill to men
We'll fulfill all the things our Fathers dreamed of.
Peace, Peace on earth. Goodwill to men,
The whole world will soon be filled with Love.

Love and kindness
We'll see them everywhere
Brotherhood and friendship,
The nations all will care.
They will, They will, They will.

There will be friendship all over every nation
They'll join hands in cooperation
Setting up a warm vibration
We feel, We feel, We feel,

There will be Peace on earth, Goodwill to men,
When it comes we'll be happy then
The whole world will be basking in
Goodwill to men.

Zion, Zion.
Zion is filled with Love.
Zion, Zion.
Zion comes from above.

The Lord hath brought Zion again
Redeemed his people who have seen a great light,
By election of grace and power of faith
And the covenant of their fathers.

Zion, Zion.
How blessed the City of God.
Filled with redeeming love.
Where all men are as brothers
Loving one another.
All men are as equals
Living for each other.

The people of God He has redeemed
Satan is bound - there's no time it seems
The Lord hath gathered all things in one
And brought down Zion from above.

Zion, Zion.
Zion is filled with Love.
Zion, Zion.
Zion comes from above.

From beneath the Lord hath brought Zion
The Earth has brought forth in her strength
Truth is established in her bowels
The heavens have smiled upon her.

Zion, Zion.
How blessed the City of God.
Filled with redeeming love.
Where all men are as brothers
Loving one another.
All men are as equals
Living for each other.

Zion is clothed with the glory of God
He stands with the people in their midst
Glory, and honor, and power, and might,
Be ascribed to our God;

Zion, Zion.
Zion is filled with Love.
Zion, Zion.
Zion comes from above.

God is full of mercy and truth
Justice and grace and peace and love
Forever and ever and ever Amen
Forever and ever and ever.

Zion, Zion.
How blessed the City of God.
Filled with redeeming love.
Where all men are as brothers
Loving one another.
All men are as equals
Living for each other.

Zion, Zion.
Zion is filled with Love.
Zion, Zion.
Zion comes from above.
