LyicsJerusalem my happy home,
O how I long for thee!
When will my sorrows have an end,
Thy joys when shall I see?
We're marching through Immanuel's ground
We soon shall hear the trumpet sound,
And then we shall our Jesus meet,
And never, never part again.
What, never part again?
No, never part again;
But there we shall our Jesus meet,
And never, never part again.
Thy wall are all of precious stone,
Most glorious to behold;
Thy gates are richly set with pearl,
Thy streets are paved with gold.
Thy garden and thy pleasant walks
My study long have been;
Such dazzling views by human sight
Have never yet been seen
If heaven be thus glorious, Lord,
Why should I stay from thence?
What folly's this that I should dread
To die, and go from hence.
When we've been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we first begun.
