HYMN 361

6S4S 
"For He hath prepared for them
a city" - Heb. 11:16



1.  JERUSALEM on high

     My song and city is

     My home whenever I die 

     The centre of my bliss. 

Chorus:  Oh happy place

               when shall I be My God, 

               with Thee to see Thy face

               Oh Lord.


2.  There dwells my Lord, my King 

     Judge here unfit in live

     There Angels to Him sing

     And lowly him age give.

Chorus:  Oh happy place...


3.  The Patriachs of old

     There from their travels cease
 
     The prophets there behold

     Their long‘d for Prince of peace. 

Chorus:  Oh happy place...


4.  The Lamb's Apostles there 

     I might with joy behold

     The Harper’s I might hear

     Harping on harps of gold.

Chorus:  Oh happy place...


5.  The bleeding Martyrs, they 

     Within those cours are found

     Clothed in pure robe array,

     Their scare with glory crown.

Chorus:  Oh happy place...


6.  Ah, woe is me that I

     In Cedar's tents here stay!

     No place like that on high:

     Lord, thither guide my way.

Chorus:  Oh happy place

               when shall I be My God, 

               with Thee to see Thy face

               Oh Lord.  Amen
