Jerusalem, thou
City bright
From Heav’n to
earth
descending,
How wondrously
their holy
light
Thy precious
stones are
blending.
Refrain
O City fair, O
City blest,
All joy to
mortals
bringing,
Who would not
raise his voice
in praise
And thy dear
name be
singing!
O Gates of
pearl,
O Streets of
gold,
O River ever
flowing
Where leads the
Shepherd to the
fold
The flock their
Savior knowing.
Refrain
Shine, holy
Light, within
our hearts
All evil shade
dispelling,
That we ne’er
from Thy way
depart,
Which leads to
that blest
dwelling.
Refrain
