Jerusalem, our happy home,
Name to us ever dear,
When will our labours end, and we
Within thy gates appear?
There happier bowers than Eden’s bloom,
Nor sin nor sorrow know;
Blessed seats, through rude and stormy scenes,
We onward press to you.
Why should we shrink at pain and woe,
Or feel at death dismay,
With Canaan’s goodly land in view,
And realms of endless day?
Apostles, martyr, prophets there,
Around the Saviour stand;
And soon our friends in Christ below,
Will join the glorious band.
Jerusalem, our happy home,
Name to us ever dear,
When will our labours end, and we
Within thy gate appear?
