Blessed city, heavenly Salem

Author: Rev. J. M. Neale Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #400a (1894) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Blessed city, heavenly Salem, Vision dear of peace and love, Who of living stones art builded In the height of heaven above, And, with angel hosts encircled, As a bride dost earthward move; 2 From celestial realms descending, Bridal glory round thee shed, Meet for Him Whose love espoused thee, To thy Lord shall thou be led; All thy streets and all thy bulwarks Of pure gold are fashionèd. 3 Bright thy gates of pearl are shining, They are open evermore; And by virtue of His merits Thither faithful souls do soar, Who for Christ's dear Name, in this world Pain and tribulation bore. 4 Many a blow and biting sculpture Polished well those stones elect, In their places now compacted By the heavenly Architect, Who therewith hath willed forever That His palace should be decked. 5 Laud and honor to the Father, Laud and honor to the Son, Laud and honor to the Spirit, Ever Three, and ever One, Consubstantial, Co-eternal, While unending ages run. Amen. Topics: All Saints; General; Processional; Church Triumphant Languages: English Tune Title: [Blessed city, heavenly Salem]

Blessèd City, Heavenly Salem

Author: Anonymous; John M. Neale Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #554 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1. Blessèd city, heavenly Salem, Vision dear of peace and love, Who of living stones art builded In the heights of Heaven above, And, with angel host encircled, As a bride to earth dost move. 2. From celestial realms descending, Bridal glory round thee shed, Meet for Him whose love espoused thee, To thy Lord shalt thou be led; All thy streets and all thy bulwarks Of pure gold are fashionèd. 3. Bright with pearls her portals glitter They are open evermore; And, by virtue of His merits, Thither faithful souls may soar, Who for Christ’s dear name in this world Pain and tribulation bore. 4. Many a blow and biting sculpture Fashioned well those stones elect, In their places now compacted By the heavenly Architect, Who therewith hath willed forever That his palace should be decked. 5. Grant that all Thy faithful people May Thy truer temple be; Neither flesh, nor soul, nor spirit, Know another Lord than Thee; But to Thee once dedicated Serve Thee ever lastingly. 6. Come Thou now, and be among us, Lord and Maker, while we pray; Let Thy presence fill the temple Which we dedicate today, And Thyself, as consecrator, Dwell within its walls always. 7. Glory to thy royal Bridegroom, Salem, sing rejoicingly; He, thy Lord, thy Light, thy Temple, Dwelleth ever more with thee; His be blessing and thanksgiving, Now and to eternity.
