Author: Peter Abelard; John Mason Neale Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 139 hymnals Topics: New Heaven and a New Earth The Completion of Creation (The City of God) Lyrics: 1. O what their joy and their glory must be, those endless sabbaths the blessed ones see; crown for the valiant, to weary ones rest; God shall be all, and in all ever blest. 2. Truly, "Jerusalem" name we that shore, city of peace that brings joy evermore; wish and fulfillment are not severed there, nor do things prayed for come short of the prayer. 3. There, where no troubles distraction can bring, we the sweet anthems of Zion shall sing; while for thy grace, Lord, their voices of praise thy blessed people eternally raise. 4. Now, in the meanwhile, with hearts raised on high, we for that country must yearn and must sigh; seeking Jerusalem, dear native land, through our long exile on Babylon's strand. 5. Low before him with our praises we fall, of whom, and in whom, and through whom are all; of whom, the Father; and in whom, the Son, through whom, the Spirit, with them ever One.

Hail, in the time appointed, your reign on earth begun! You come to break oppression, to set the captive free, to take away transgression, and rule in equity. 2 You come with rescue speedy to those who suffer wrong, to help the poor and needy, and bid the weak be strong: to give them songs for sighing, their darkness turn to light, whose souls, condemned and dying, are precious in your sight. 3 You shall come down like showers upon the fruitful earth; love, joy, and hope, like flowers, spring in your path to birth. Before you on the mountains shall peace, the herald, go; and righteousness in fountains from hill to valley flow. 4 Kings shall fall down before you, and gold and incense bring; all nations shall adore you, your praise all people sing. To you shall prayer unceasing and daily vows ascend; your kingdom still increasing, a kingdom without end. Scripture: Psalm 72 Used With Tune: ES FLOG EIN KLEINS WALDVÖGELEIN
