Jerusalem, O City Fair and High
Author: Johann Matthäus Meyfart, 1590-1642; Catherine Winkworth, 1827-78 Meter: 10.6.10.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 66 hymnals Topics: End Times Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem, O city fair and high,
Your tow'rs I yearn to see;
My longing heart to you would gladly fly.
It will not stay with me.
Elijah's chariot take me
Above the lower skies,
To heaven's bliss awake me,
Released from earthly ties.
2 O happy day, O yet far happier hour,
When will you come at last,
When by my gracious Father's love and pow'r
I see that portal vast?
From heaven's shining regions
To greet me gladly come
Your blessed angel legions
To bid me welcome home.
3 The patriarchs' and prophets' noble train,
With all Christ's foll'wers true,
Who washed their robes and cleansed sin's guilty stain,
Sing praises ever new!
I see them shine forever,
Resplendent as the sun,
In light diminished never,
Their glorious freedom won.
4 Unnumbered choirs before the shining throne
Their joyful anthems raise
Till heaven's arches echo with the tone
Of that great hymn of praise.
And all its host rejoices,
And all its blessed throng
Unite their myriad voices
In one eternal song.

Yet nightly pitch my moving tent
A day's march nearer home.

Home of my soul, how near
At times, to faith's foreseeing eye
The golden gates appear!

Then can I never fail.
If you uphold me, I shall stand;
With you I shall prevail.

Shall rend the veil in two,
By death I shall escape from death
To endless life with you.

And oft repeat before the throne,

Thy people's everlasting Light:
O Christ, Redeemer, save us all
And hear Thy servants when they call.

Should doom to death a universe,
Hast found the healing, full of grace,
To cure and save our ruined race.
3 Thou cam'st the Bridegroom of the bride,
As drew the world to eventide,
The spotless Victim all divine
Proceeding from a virgin shrine.
4 At whose dread name, majestic now,
All knees must bend, all hearts must bow;
All things celestial Thee shall own,
And things terrestrial, Lord alone. A-men.
5 O Thou, whose coming is with dread
To judge the living and the dead,
Preserve us from the ancient foe
While still we dwell on earth below.
6 To God the Father and the Son
And Holy Spirit, Three in One,
Praise, honor, might, and glory be
From age to age eternally.
