The Earth and Seas are past away, And the old rolling Skies. 2 From the third Heav'n where God resides, That holy, happy Place, The New Jerusalem comes down Adorn'd with shining Grace. 3 Attending Angels shout for Joy, And the bright Armies sing, Mortals, behold the sacred Seat Of your descending King. 4 The God of Glory down to Men Removes his bless'd Abode; Men, the dear Objects of his Grace, And he the loving God. 5 His own soft Hand shall wipe the Tears, From ev'ry weeping Eye, And Pains, and Groans, and Griefs, and Fears, And Death itself shall die. 6 How long, dear Saviour, oh how long, Shall this bright Hour delay? Fly swifter round, ye Wheels of Time, And bring the welcome Day. Scripture: Revelation 21:1-4 Languages: English

Is he a God, and shall his Grace Grow weary of his Saints? 4 Can a kind Woman e'er forget The Infant of her Womb, Among a Thousand tender Thoughts Her Suckling have no Room? 5 Yet, saith the Lord, should Nature change, And Mothers Monsters prove, Sion still dwells upon the Heart Of everlasting Love. 6 Deep on the Palms of both my Hands I have engrav'd her Name; My Hands shall raise her ruin'd Wall, And build her broken Frame.

[5 Their secret Fires in Caverns lay, And we the Sacrifice; But gloomy Caverns strove in vain To 'scape all searching Eyes. 6 Their dark Designs were all reveal'd, Their Treasons all betray'd; Praise to the Lord that broke the Snare Their cursed hands had laid.] 7 In vain the busy Sons of Hell Still new Rebellions try, Their Souls shall pine with envious Rage, And vex away and die. 8 Almighty Grace defends our Land From their malicious Pow'r; Let Britain with united Songs Almighty Grace adore.
