O hap py har-bor of God's saints! O sweet and pleas-ant soil!

In thee no sor-row may be found, Nor grief, nor care, nor toil. A-men. b

2 No murky cloud o'ershadows thee,
Nor gloom, nor darksome night;
But every soul shines as the sun;
For God Himself gives light,
O my sweet home, Jerusalem
Thy joys when shall I see?
The King that sitteth on thy throne
In His felicity?

3 Thy gardens and thy goodly walks
Continually are green,

Where grow such sweet and pleasant
As nowhere else are seen. [flowers

Right through thy streets, with silver
The living waters flow,
[sound,

And on the banks, on either side,
The trees of life do grow.

4 Those trees for evermore bear fruit,
And evermore do spring:
There evermore the angels are,
And evermore do sing.
Jerusalem, my happy home,
Would God I were in thee!
Would God my woes were at an end,
Thy joys that I might see! Amen.
Latin Hymn. Tr. "F. B. P.," arr. by DAVID DICKSON

2 Arise, arise, good Christian,
Let right to wrong succeed;
Let penitential sorrow

To heavenly gladness lead;
To the home of fadeless splendor,
Of flowers that bear no thorn.
Where they shall dwell as children
Who here as exiles mourn;

3 'Mid power that knows no limit,
And wisdom free from bound,
Where rests a peace untroubled,
Peace holy and profound.
O happy, holy portion,
Refection for the blest,
True vision of true beauty,
Sweet cure for all distrest!

4 Thou hast no shore, fair ocean!
Thou hast no time, bright day!
Dear fountain of refreshment
To pilgrims far away!
Strive, man, to win that glory;
Toil, man, to gain that light,
Send hope before to grasp it,
Till hope be lost in sight.

5 O sweet and blessed country,
The home of God's elect!
O sweet and blessèd 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! Amen.
