Author: John M. Neale Hymnal: Hallowed Hymns, New and Old #246 (1908) Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem, the golden,
With milk and honey blest!
Beneath thy contemplation
Sink heart and voice opprest:
I know not, oh, I know not,
What social joys are there,
What radiancy of glory,
What light beyond compare.
2 They stand, those halls of Zion,
All jubilant with song,
And bright with many an angel,
And all the martyr throng;
The Prince is ever in them,
The daylight is serene;
The pastures of the blessed
Are decked in glorious sheen.
3 There is the throne of David;
And there, from care released,
The song of them that triumph,
The shout of them that feast:
And they who, with their Leader,
Have conquered in the fight,
Forever and forever
Are clad in robes of white. Topics: Heaven Languages: English Tune Title: EWING
