Lyrics Among Them - John Brown's Body

Among Them

I want to be among them
They’re going to Zion
Move away from earthliness
Casting off your weariness
I know that we’ve sung God’s praise
So we’ve got to find our place
Among God’s people, now going to Zion
I want to be among them
They’re going to Zion
In my house there is a picture on the wall
It asks «who are these people?»
Then my vision is restored
It is them who have suffered
All of God’s children, now going to Zion
I want to be among them
They’re going to Zion
Peter will be there to build us a shelter
Moses will be there
Elijah will be there
Dressed in garment made of light
I want to see it with my own two eyes
I want to be among the righteous people
I want to be among the countless singing
Singing song of love
Behold a righteous place
No holier place, no holier place
Behold Mount Zion, all dance in Mount Zion
