“Glorious things of thee are spoken, Zion city of our God!
He, whose word cannot be broken, Form’d for thee his own abode:
On the rock of ages founded, What can shake thy sure repose?
With salvation’s walls surrounded Thou may’st smile at all thy foes.”

Going by at a railroad rate,
Looking through wreaths of engine smoke
Far into the lives of other folk.”
