Jerusalem, my happy home
Jerusalem, my happy home
Appears in 618 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem, my happy home,
When shall I come to thee?
When shall my sorrows have an end?
Thy joys when shall I see?
2 O happy harbor of the saints,
O sweet and pleasant soil!
In thee no sorrow may be found,
No grief, no care, no toil.
3 Thy gardens and thy gallant walks
Continually are green;
There grow such sweet and pleasant flowers
As nowhere else are seen.
4 Quite through the streets with silver sound
The flood of life doth flow,
Upon whose banks on every side
The wood of life doth grow.
5 There trees for evermore bear fruit,
And evermore do spring;
There evermore the angels sit,
And evermore do sing.
6 Jerusalem, my happy home,
Would God I were in thee!
Would God my woes were at an end,
Thy joys that I might see! Topics: The Church Year Saints' Days - Minor Festivals; The Church The House of God; The Life In Christ Life Everlasting Used With Tune: SOUTHWELL (IRONS) Text Sources: Based on St. Augustine, F. B. P., cir. XVI cent.
Jerusalem, my happy home
How bright these glorious spirits shine!
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 156 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How bright these glorious spirits shine!
whence all their white array?
How came they to the blissful seats
of everlasting day?
2 Lo, these are they from suff'rings great,
who came to realms of light,
and in the blood of Christ have wash'd
those robes that shine so bright.
3 Now, with triumphal palms they stand
before the throne on high,
and serve the God they love, amidst
the glories of the sky.
4 His presence fills each heart with joy,
tunes ev'ry mouth to sing:
by day, by night, the sacred courts
with glad hosannas ring.
5 Hunger and thirst are felt no more,
nor sun with scorching ray:
God is their sun, whose cheering beams
diffuse eternal day.
6 The Lamb, who dwells amidst the throne
shall o'er them still preside,
feed them with nourishment divine,
and all their footsteps guide.
7 'Mong pastures green he'll lead his flock,
where living streams appear;
and God the Lord from every eye
shall wipe off ev'ry tear. Used With Tune: SOUTHWELL (IRONS)

Father of mercies, in thy word
Author: Anne Steele, 1716-1778 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 755 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Father of mercies, in thy word,
what endless glory shines!
Forever be thy name adored
for these celestial lines.
2 Here may the blind and hungry come,
and light and food receive;
here shall the lowliest guest have room,
and taste and see and live.
3 Here springs of consolation rise
to cheer the fainting mind,
and thirsting souls receive supplies,
and sweet refreshment find.
4 Here the Redeemer's welcome voice
spreads heavenly peace around,
and life and everlasting joys
attend the blissful sound.
5 O may these heavenly pages be
my ever dear delight,
and still new beauties may I see,
and still increasing light.

be thou for ever near:
teach me to love thy sacred word,
and view my Saviour here. Topics: General Hymns Holy Scripture Used With Tune: SOUTHWELL (IRONS)
