Their names are names of kings
Of heavenly line;
The bliss of earthly things
They did resign.
Chieftains they were, who warred
With sword and shield;
Victors for God the Lord
On foughten field.
Sad were their days on earth,
�Mid hate and scorn,
A life of pleasure�s dearth,
A death forlorn;
Yet blest that end in woe,
And those sad days;
Only man�s blame below;
Above�God�s praise.
A city of great name
Is built for them,
Of glorious golden fame�
Jerusalem!
Redeemed with the precious blood
From death and sin,
Sons of the Triune God,
They enter in.
So doth the life of pain
In glory close;
Lord God, may we attain
Their grand repose.
