Jerusalem, My Happy Home,
O How I Long For Thee!
When Will My Sorrows Have An End?
Thy Joys When Shall I See?
Thy Walls Are All Of Precious Stones,
Most Glorious To Behold!
Thy Gates Are Richly Set With Pearl,
Thy Streets Are Paved With Gold.
Thy Gardens And Thy Pleasant Greens
My Study Long Have Been;
Such Sparkling Gems By Human Sight
Have Never Yet Been Seen.
If Heavens Be Thus Glorious, Lord,
Why Should I Stay From Thence?
What Folly ’Tis That I Should Dread
To Die And Go From Hence!
Reach Down, Reach Down Thine Arms Of Grace
And Cause Me To Ascend,
Where Congregations Ne’er Break Up,
And Sabbaths Never End.
Jesus, My Love, To Glory’s Gone;
Him Will I Go And See;
And All My Brethren Here Below
Will Soon Come After Me.
