Jerusalem the glorious
1
Jerusalem the glorious,The glory of the elect,O dear and future visionThat eager hearts expect!E'en now by faith I see thee,E'en here thy walls discern;To thee my thoughts are kindled,And strive and pant and yearn.
2
Jerusalem the golden,Thou hope of saints below,In thee is all my glory,In me is all my woe;Jerusalem! exultingOn that securest shore,I hope thee, wish thee, sing thee,And love thee evermore.

O sweet and blessed country!Shall I e'er see thy face?O sweet and blessed country!Shall I e'er win thy grace?Exult, O dust and ashes!The Lord shall be thy part;His only, his forever,Thou shalt be and thou art.
