429. Jerusalem the Golden

SDA Hymnal

Verse 1

Jerusalem the golden,

With milk and honey blest,

Beneath thy contemplation

Sink heart and voice oppressed.

I know not, O I know not

What holy joys are there;

What radiancy of glory,

What bliss beyond compare.

Verse 1

They stand, those halls of Zion,

All jubilant with song,

And bright with many an angel,

And all the martyr throng.

The Prince is ever in them,

The daylight is serene;

The pastures of the blessed

Are decked in glorious sheen.

Verse 2

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 conquered in the fight,

Forever and forever

Are clad in robes of white.

Verse 3

O sweet and blessed country,

The home of God's elect!

O sweet and blessed 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.
