"And saviors shall come up on
Mount Zion to judge the mount
of Esau
And the kingdom shall be the
Lord's."
—Obadiah 1:21.
America, thou land of freedom,
Scan the prophecy of yore;
Bestow thy favor on my people,
Secure her peace for evermore.
And thou Britannia the olden
Read the writing on the wall;
Give no arms to invaders
Remove my people's ancient
thrall!
Saviors will ascend Mount Zion
And Mount Esau shall be judged;
God's kingdom then will be
established
And the pledge that He has
pledged.
