Text: | Jerusalem, My Happy Home |
Author: | F. B. P., 16th century |
Tune: | LAND OF REST |
1 Jerusalem, my happy home,
When shall I come to thee?
When shall my sorrows have an end?
Thy joys when shall I see?
2 When shall these eyes thy heav'n-built walls
And pearly gates behold,
Thy bulwarks with salvation strong
And streets of shining gold?
3 Oh, when, thou city of my God,
Shall I thy courts ascend?
Where evermore the angels sing,
The Sabbath has no end.
4 Apostles, martyrs, prophets, there
Around my Savior stand,
And soon my friends in Christ below
Will join the glorious band.
5 O Christ, do thou my soul prepare
For that bright home of love
That I may see thee and adore
With all thy saints above.
