Unshaken as the Sacred Hill

Unshaken as the Sacred Hill
}
Unshaken as the sacred hill,
And firm as mountains stand,
Firm as a rock the soul shall rest,
That trusts th' Almighty hand.
Not walls nor hills could guard so well
Old Salem's happy ground
As those eternal arms of love,
That every saint surround.
Deal gently, Lord, with souls sincere,
And lead them safely on
To the bright gates of paradise,
Where Christ their Lord is gone.
