City of the Jasper Wall

Author: Dr. Bethune Appears in 30 hymnals Topics: Heaven First Line: O city of the jasper wall Refrain First Line: O land of bliss, O land of light Lyrics: 1 O city of the jasper wall, And of the pearly gate, For thee amid the storms of life, Our weary spirits wait, O may we walk the streets of gold, No mortal feet have trod; O may we worship at the shrine, The temple of our God. Refrain: O land of bliss! O land of light! O city of the jasper wall! O land forever bright! 2 O city where they need no light Of sun, or moon, or star, Could we with eye of faith but see How bright thy mansions are, How soon our doubts would flee away, How strong our trust would grow, Until our hearts should trust no more The treasure here below. [Refrain] 3 O city where the shining gates Shut out all grief and sin, Well may we yearn amid earth’s strife, Thy holy peace to win,— Yet will we meekly bear the cross, Nor seek to lay it down, Until our Father calls us home, And gives the promised crown. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [O city of the jasper wall]

Come let us go to heaven;--our guide Is Christ who lived, is Christ who died, And rose again; His staff and rod, Through life and death, will lead to God. Come, let us go to heaven;--forsake Sin, earth, and hell, and gladly take His easy yoke, His pleasant load, And brave the dangers of the road. 121 Come, let us go to heaven;--and press On through the howling wilderness; Yet fear not, little flock, though foes Without, within, your course oppose. Come, let us go to heaven,--no power, Not Satan roaring to devour, Nor all his hosts, can harm, for ye, Through Christ, shall more than conquerors be. Come, let us go to heaven;--and meet Once and for ever, round His feet; Yea, in Christ's kingdom, as His own, Sit down with Him upon His throne. Can these things be?--they are, are sure To all who to the end endure; While unbelief cries, "can they be?" Come, let us go to heaven and see.
