#429Jerusalem the Golden
Hymn Display
1
Jerusalem the golden,
With milk and honey blest,
Beneath thy contemplation
Sink heart and voice oppressed.
2
They stand, those halls of Zion,
All jubilant with song,
And bright with many an angel,
And all the martyr throng.
3
There is the throne of David,
And there, from care released,
The shout of them that triumph,
The song of them that feast.
4
O sweet and blessed country,
The home of God's elect!
O sweet and blessed country
That eager hearts expect!
C
Chorus
I know not, O I know not
What holy joys are there,
What radiancy of glory,
What bliss beyond compare.
