2 When shall these eyes thy heaven-built walls
And pearly gates behold? Thy bulwarks with salvation strong, And streets of shining gold?
3 There happier bowers than Eden's bloom,
Nor sin nor sorrow know: Blest seats! through rude and stormy scenes I onward press to you.
4 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.
5 Apostles, martyrs, prophets, there
Around my Saviour stand; And soon my friends in Christ below Will join the glorious band.
6 Jerusalem, my happy home!
My soul still pants for thee: Then shall my labors have an end, When I thy joys shall see.
Founded on " F. P. B." in MS. of i6th or 17th cent
