Jerusalem, my happy home

Author: Anon.; Joseph Bromhead Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #609 (1913) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem, my happy home, Name ever dear to me! When shall my labors have an end In joy, and peace, and thee? 2 When shall these eyes thy heaven built walls And pearly gates behold? Thy bulwarks with salvation strong, And streets of shining gold? 3 O when, thou city of my God, Shall I thy courts ascend, Where evermore the angels sing, Where sabbaths have no end? 4 There happier bowers than Eden’s bloom, Nor sin nor sorrow know: Blest seats! through rude and stormy scenes I onward press to you. 5 Why should I shrink at pain and woe, Or feel at death dismay? I’ve Canaan’s goodly land in view, And realms of endless day. 6 Apostles, martyrs, prophets there Around my Savior stand; And soon my friends in Christ below Will join the glorious band. 7 Jerusalem, my happy home! My soul still pants for thee; Then shall my labors have an end, When I thy joy shall see.

Psalm 119

Hymnal: Laudes Domini #236 (1884) First Line: The Spirit breathes upon the word Lyrics: 1 The Spirit breathes upon the word, And brings the truth to sight; Precepts and promises afford A sanctifying light. 2 A glory gilds the sacred page, Majestic, like the sun: It gives a light to every age;-- It gives, but borrows none. 3 The hand, that gave it, still supplies The gracious light and heat; Its truths upon the nations rise,-- They rise, but never set. 4 Let everlasting thanks be thine, For such a bright display, As makes a world of darkness shine With beams of heavenly day. 5 My soul rejoices to pursue The steps of him I love, Till glory breaks upon my view, In brighter worlds above.
