To Zion Lyrics by Lauryn Hill

To Zion Lyrics

    Unsure of what the balance held
    I touched my belly overwhelmed
    By what I had been chosen to perform
    But then an angel came one day
    Told me to kneel down and pray
    For unto me a man child would be born
    Woe this crazy circumstance
    I knew his life deserved a chance
    But everybody told me to be smart
    Look at your career they said,
    "Lauryn, baby use your head"
    But instead I chose to use my heart

    Now the joy of my world is in Zion
    Now the joy of my world is in Zion

    How beautiful if nothing more
    Than to wait at Zion's door
    I've never been in love like this before
    Now let me pray to keep you from
    The perils that will surely come
    See life for you my prince has just begun
    And I thank you for choosing me
    To come through unto life to be
    A beautiful reflection of his grace
    For I know that a gift so great
    Is only one God could create
    And I'm reminded every time I see your face

    That the joy of my world is in Zion
    Now the joy of my world is in Zion
    Now the joy of my world is in Zion
    Now the joy of my world is in Zion

    Marching, marching, marching to Zion
    Marching, marching
    Marching, marching, marching to Zion
    Beautiful, beautiful Zion
    [repeat to end of song]
