Jerusalem, my happy home, Name ever dear to me

Author: Dickson Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 843 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem, my happy home, Name ever dear to me; When shall my labors have an end In joy and peace in thee? 2 When shall these eyes thy heaven-built walls And pearly gates behold; Thy bulwarks with salvation strong, And streets of shining gold? 3 Oh when, thou city of my God, Shall I thy courts ascend, Where congregations ne'er break up, And Sabbaths never end? 4 Why should I shrink from sin and woe? Or feel, at death, dismay? Jerusalem I soon shall view, In realms of endless day. 5 Apostles, martyrs, prophets, there Around my Saviour stand; And soon my friends in Christ below Will join the glorious band. 6 Jerusalem, my happy home, My soul still pants for thee; There shall my labors have an end When I thy joys shall see.
