Lyrics: T. Tow
O Jerusalem, Thou City bright and fair,
My heart is yearning to be there,
O Jerusalem, Thou City bright and fair,
My heart is yearning to be there,
My Lord now has come, no more shall I linger,
O bring me to Jerusalem,
My Lord now has come, no more shall I linger,
O bring me to Jerusalem.
O Jesus my Lord, Thou Holy Son of God,
Mine eyes Thy Salvation have seen,
O Jesus my Lord, Thou Holy Son of God,
Mine eyes Thy Salvation have seen,
Messiah is come, King o’er Jerusalem,
Behold He sits enthroned in Zion,
Messiah is come, King o’er Jerusalem,
Behold He sits enthroned in Zion.
Hail Thou Prince of Peace, Come reign over us,
Gov’nors and kings fall their knees,
Hail Thou Prince of Peace, Come reign over us,
Gov’nors and kings fall their knees,
From Jerusalem, Truth and Grace shall conquer,
Till suns shall rise a thousand years,
From Jerusalem, Truth and Grace shall conquer,
Till suns shall rise a thousand years.
