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 nothin' 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 choosin' me
To come through unto life to be
A beautiful reflection of his grace

See 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
[ Lauryn Hill Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
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

Marchin', marchin', marchin' to Zion
Marchin', marchin', marchin'
Marchin', marchin', marchin', marchin' to Zion

Marchin', marchin', marchin' to Zion
Marchin', marchin', marchin'

Marchin' beautiful, beautiful Zion

Marchin', marchin', marchin' to Zion
Marchin', marchin', marchin'
Marchin', marchin', marchin', marchin' to Zion
Marchin' beautiful, beautiful Zion

Marchin', marchin', marchin' to Zion
Marchin', marchin', marchin'
Marchin', marchin', marchin', marchin' to Zion
Marchin' beautiful, beautiful Zion

Unsure of what the balance held
I touched my belly, overwhelmed
By what I had been chosen to perform
