Moving To Zion

(album: Nightlights - 2010)

I was born on the Mountain of Sinai
Made my home on the old stubborn hill
Spent my life and these times always running
And I'm running still

There were four men who lived up above me
There were six more that lived down below
And I hated all ten
Cuz they just told me the mess I's in
And that's when I knew I had to go

So now I'm moving, moving to Zion
Where there is rest for these weary bones
There on that mountain, I'll be rejoicing
Cuz in Jesus I will find my home, yeah, oh, hey

I was raised up by daddy Moses
And you know I'm the bond woman's son
And my family ain't no bed of roses
So I had to find a new one

Well I found Grace she become my mother
Yes she did
And her daughter is faith in the one
And that girl took me in like her brother
And we've only just begun

So now I'm moving, moving to Zion
Where there is rest for these weary bones
There on that mountain, I'll be rejoicing
Cuz in Jesus I will find my home

These thunderstorms and trumpet warnings
Will not scare me off this time, no no no
Cuz I'm moving to Zion
Where the lamb and the lion reside

So now I'm moving, moving to Zion
Where there's rest for these weary bones
There on that mountain, I'll be rejoicing
Cuz in Jesus I will find

I'm moving, moving to Zion
Where there is rest for these weary bones
There on that mountain, I'll be rejoicing
Cuz in Jesus I will find
In Jesus I will find
In Jesus I will find my home
