How pure that soul must be, when, placed within thy searching sight, it shrinks not, but with calm delight can live and look on thee. 2 The spirits that surround thy throne may bear the burning bliss; but surely that is theirs alone, since they have never, never known a fallen world like this, 3 O how shall I, whose native sphere is dark, whose mind is dim, before the Ineffable appear, and on my naked spirit bear the uncreated beam? 4 There is a way for man to rise to that sublime abode; an offering and a sacrifice, a Holy Spirit's energies, an Advocate with God: 5 These, these prepare us for the sight of holiness above: the sons of ignorance and night may dwell in the eternal light, through the eternal Love!

Refrain: Jerusalem, my blissful home, Long has my soul repined for thee; I’ll sing thy praise forevermore, Blest mother of the pure and free. 2 This holy new Jerusalem Came down from God all pure; In her the Lord doth dwell with men, And keep them evermore. Thou art the mother of us all, Thou art the church of God; And all within thy sacred wall Are washed in Jesus’ blood. [Refrain] 3 The Lamb of God Himself thy light, Shines out in crystal rays; We call thy walls salvation bright, And all thy gates are praise. O city of eternal truth, Blest mother of the free, As in the glory of thy youth, The saints have come to thee.
