Founded on Holy Ground
A psalm of the sons of Korah. A song.
87 1 He has founded his city on the holy mountains; 2 our Father loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob. 3 Glorious things are spoken of you, city of our Father. Selah
4 "I will record Egypt and Babylon among those who know me; see, Philistia and Tyre, with Cush — this one was born there." a a v4 Here "Rahab" is a poetic name for Egypt, not the woman of Jericho — naming Israel's old oppressor among the nations our Father counts as born in his city. 5 And of Zion it will be said, "This one and that one were born in her," and the Most High himself will establish her. 6 our Father will count, as he registers the peoples, "This one was born there." Selah
7 Singers and dancers alike say, "All my springs are in you."
