لي منزل بعيد فوق السما

Representative Text

1 لي منزلٌ مجيدْ
فوق السما
كل امرءٍ سعيدْ
حازَ الهنا
يرقى إلى رباهْ
مالكاً سُكنى حِماهْ
في حضرة الإله
كلِّ الرجا

2 ملائك السلام
والأنبيا
والرسُل الكرامْ
والأتقيا
فيه بلا عدد
بابتهاج للأبد
تُسبحُ الصمدْ
بلا انتها

3 بل فيه تستريح
منَ الشقا
في كنفِ المسيح
عند اللقا
هناك لا وجعْ
أو بِلَحدٍ مضطَجَعْ
لا نَوحَ يُستَمعْ
ولا بكا

4 فيه يسبحون
ربَّ الفدا
دوماً يقدمونْ
كل الثنا
من كل قلبهم
إذ نجَوا مِن ذنبهمْ
في موت ربهم
نالوا الشفا
