Jerusalem, my happy home,
when shall I come to thee?
When shall my sorrows have an end?
Thy joys when shall I see?

Thy saints are crowned with glory great;
they see God face to face;
they triumph still, they still rejoice
in that most happy place.

as master of the choir:
ten thousand times would one be blest
who might this music hear.

with tune surpassing sweet,
and blessed martyrs' harmony
doth ring in every street.
