Jerusalem the golden
Author: St Bernard of Cluny (12th century); John Mason Neale, 1818-1866 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 909 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 16:5 Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem the golden,
with milk and honey blest,
beneath thy contemplation
sink heart and voice oppressed.
I know not, ah, I know not
what joys await us there,
what radiancy of glory,
what bliss beyond compare.
2 They stand, those halls of Zion,
all jubilant with song,
and bright with many angels,
and all the martyr throng;
the prince is ever in them,
the daylight is serene;
the pastures of the blessèd
are decked in glorious sheen.
3 There is the throne of David,
and there, from care released,
the shout of them that triumph,
the song of them that feast;
and they, who with their leader
have fully run the race,
are robed in white for ever
before their Saviour's face.
4 O sweet and blessèd country,
the home of God's elect!
O sweet and blessèd country
that eager hearts expect!
Jesus, in mercy bring us
to that dear land of rest;
who art, with God the Father
and Spirit, ever blest. Topics: All Saints; Funerals; The Communion of Saints; Year A All Saints' Day; Year A Easter 2; Year B Second Sunday Before Advent; Year C Easter 4; Year C Proper 8 Used With Tune: EWING Text Sources: "De Contemptu Mundi"

A day's march nearer home.

The promise of that faithful word
E'en here to me fulfill.

And life eternal gain.

And oft repeat before the throne,

The Lord's my Shepherd, I'll not want
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 567 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 16:5 Lyrics: 1 The Lord's my Shepherd, I'll not want;

in pastures green; he leadeth me
the quiet waters by.

and me to walk doth make
within the paths of righteousness,
e'en for his own name's sake.
3 Yea, though I walk through death's dark vale,
yet will I fear none ill;
for thou art with me, and thy rod
and staff me comfort still.
4 My table thou hast furnishèd
in presence of my foes;
my head thou dost with oil anoint,
and my cup overflows.

shall surely follow me;
and in God's house for evermore
my dwelling-place shall be. Topics: Proper 19 Year C; Funerals, Commemoration, Remembrance and All Souls Used With Tune: CRIMOND Text Sources: Scottish Psalter, 1650

no change my heart shall fear;
and safe is such confiding,

my heart may low be laid;
but God is round about me,
and can I be dismayed?
2 Wherever he may guide me,
no want shall turn me back;
my Shepherd is beside me,
and nothing can I lack:
his wisdom ever waketh,
his sight is never dim,
he knows the way he taketh,
and I will walk with him.
3 Green pastures are before me,
which yet I have not seen;
bright skies will soon be o'er me,
where darkest clouds have been;
my hope I cannot measure,
my path to life is free;
my Saviour has my treasure,
and he will walk with me.
