Hymnal: The Southern Harmony, and Musical Companion (New ed. thoroughly rev. and much enl.) #198 (1854) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Refrain First Line: We're marching through Emmanuel's ground Lyrics:
1 Jerusalem, my happy home,
Oh how I long for thee!
When will my sorrows have an end?
Thy joys when shall I see?
Chorus:
We're marching through Emmanuel's ground;
We soon shall hear the welcome trumpet sound,—
Oh, there we shall with Jesus dwell,
And never part again:
What, never part again?
No, never part again,
No, never part again,
No, never part again,
Oh, there we shall with Jesus dwell,
And never part again.
2 Jesus, my Lord, to glory's gone;
Him will I go and see;
And all my brethren, here below,
Will soon come after me. [Chorus]
3 Reach down, O Lord, thine arm of grace,
And cause me to ascend
Where congregations ne'er break up,
And Sabbaths never end. [Chorus]
