<p>Light’s abode, celestial Salem,<br>
|
|
Vision whence true peace doth spring,<br>
|
|
Brighter than the heart can fancy,<br>
|
|
Mansion of the highest King;<br>
|
|
O how glorious are the praises<br>
|
|
Which of thee the prophets sing!</p>
|
|
<p>There for ever and for ever<br>
|
|
Alleluia is outpoured<br>
|
|
For unending and unbroken<br>
|
|
Is the feast day of the Lord;<br>
|
|
All is pure and all is holy<br>
|
|
That within thy walls is stored.</p>
|
|
<p>There no cloud nor passing vapor<br>
|
|
Dims the brightness of the air;<br>
|
|
Endless noonday, glorious noonday,<br>
|
|
From the Sun of suns is there;<br>
|
|
There no night brings rest from labor,<br>
|
|
For unknown are toil and care.</p>
|
|
<p>O how glorious and resplendent,<br>
|
|
Fragile body, shalt thou be,<br>
|
|
When endued with so much beauty,<br>
|
|
Full of health, and strong, and free,<br>
|
|
Full of vigor, full of pleasure<br>
|
|
That shall last eternally!</p>
|
|
<p>Now with gladness, now with courage,<br>
|
|
Bear the burden on thee laid,<br>
|
|
That hereafter these thy labors<br>
|
|
May with endless gifts be paid,<br>
|
|
And in everlasting glory<br>
|
|
Thou with brightness be arrayed.</p>
|
|
<p>Laud and honor to the Father,<br>
|
|
Laud and honor to the Son,<br>
|
|
Laud and honor to the Spirit,<br>
|
|
Ever Three, and ever One,<br>
|
|
Consubstantial, Co-eternal,<br>
|
|
While unending ages run.</p>
