Hymn: Jerusalem the golden Lyrics

Jerusalem the golden

With milk and honey blest

Beneath thy contemplation

Sink heart and voice opprest

I know not, O I know not

What social joys are there

What radiancy of glory

What light beyond compare

They stand,those halls of Sion

Conjubilant 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 blessèd

Are decked in glorious sheen

There is the throne of David

And there, from care released

The song of them that triumph

The shout of them that feast

And they who, with their Leader

Have conquered in the fight

For ever and for ever

Are clad in robes of white

O sweet and blessèd country

Shall I ever see thy face?

O sweet and blessed country

Shall I ever win thy grace?

Exult, O dust and ashes!

The Lord shall be thy part

His only, his for ever

Thou shalt be, and thou art!
