The Mountain of the LORD
Richard Newton Sherrer 1951 (Easton)
It comes to pass in latter days,
The mountain of the house of God;
It shall be the highest always,
For a place to honor and laud.
Many nations shall come and say,
Let us go up to the mountain;
So we may walk the path today,
And drink from the living fountain.
Out of Zion goes forth the Law,
The His Word from Jerusalem;
Those who do not regret their flaw,
The Lord will finally condemn.
He shall judge of many people,
Shall rebuke nations from afar;
Who do not worship at His temple,
Exposing their unholy scar.
They shall beat plowshares from their swords,
And pruning hooks made from their spears;
To receive the righteous rewards,
Each and everyone who reveres.
No longer shall they lift a sword,
Neither shall they learn about war;
And follow the Word of the Lord,
For they shall be conflicts no more.
Each man to sit under His vine,
No one shall ever be afraid;
Hearing speech from the Divine,
And obey by what is conveyed.
For all who walk in their god,
Since their path follows the dark;
We walk in the honor of God.
Within His light, we will embark.
