For thee, O dear, dear country

Hymnal: Voices of Praise #210 (1883) Lyrics: 1 For thee, O dear, dear country, Mine eyes their vigils keep; For very love beholding Thy happy name, they weep, The mention of thy glory, Is unction to the breast, And medicine in sickness, And love, and life, and rest. 2 O one, O only mansion; O Paradise of joy! Where tears are ever banished, And smiles have no alloy; The Lamb is all thy splendour, The Crucified thy praise; His laud and benediction Thy ransomed people raise. 3 With jasper glow thy bulwarks, Thy streets with emeralds blaze; The sardius and the topaz Unite in thee their rays; Thine ageless walls are bonded With amethyst unpriced; The saints build up its fabric, And the corner-stone is Christ. 4 Thou has no shore, fair ocean! Thou hast no time, bright day! Dear fountain of refreshment To pilgrims far away! Upon the Rock of Ages They raise thy holy tower; Thine is the victor's laurel, And thine the golden dower. 5 O sweet and blessed country, The home of God's elect! O sweet and blessed country, That eager hearts expect! Jesus, in mercy bring us To that dear land of rest; Who art, with God the Father, And Spirit, ever blest. Amen.
