Song Leader’s NotesSDA Hymnal Companion The lesson says, “Zion is summoned to enter into the light that is hers…although Zion is Jerusalem, the emphasis is more on the people than on the physical location of the city.” We are marching to Zion to where God’s presence is. (Lesson 12, 1st Quarter 2021 -Tuesday, Universal Appeal, 3/16/2021) As we prepare for the coming of Christ, may we place our hearts to God and fully trust His ways. Proverbs 3:5-6 says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct your paths. (Lesson 6, 1st Quarter 2021 -Thursday, Final Triumph of Zion, 2/04/2021) We might not be able to imagine how Abraham and his household have marched from the land of Ur to the land of Canaan. But we can be sure that there is joy in their hearts, and perhaps even singing along the way because they knew that God is leading them to the place that He will give to them. Likewise, there is joy in our hearts because we are also marching to a place that He has prepared for us in our heavenly home. Yes, we’re marching to Zion. (Lesson 12, 2nd Quarter 2021 -Wednesday, The Faith of Abraham: Part 2, 6/16/2021) Explore more hymns: Share2TweetPinBufferPocketEmail2 Shares Finding things here useful?If you find any joy and value in this site, please consider becoming a Recurring Patron with a sustaining monthly donation of your choosing.
