198. Jerusalem, my happy home

1 Jerusalem, my happy home,
Oh how I long for thee!
When will my sorrows have an end?
Thy joys when shall I see?

Chorus:
We're marching through Emmanuel's ground;
We soon shall hear the welcome trumpet sound,—
Oh, there we shall with Jesus dwell,
And never part again:
What, never part again?
No, never part again,
No, never part again,
No, never part again,
Oh, there we shall with Jesus dwell,
And never part again.

2 Jesus, my Lord, to glory's gone;
Him will I go and see;
And all my brethren, here below,
Will soon come after me. [Chorus]

3 Reach down, O Lord, thine arm of grace,
And cause me to ascend
Where congregations ne'er break up,
And Sabbaths never end. [Chorus]
