    HYMN 7. 8 lines 8s

    1 Away with our sorrow and fear,
    We soon shall recover our home;
    The city of saints shall appear;
    The day of eternity come. From earth we shall quickly remove,
    And mount to our native abode
    The house of our Father above,
    The palace of angels and God.
    MIM 12.3

    2 Our mourning is all at an end,
    When, raised by the life-giving Word,
    We see the new city descend,
    Adorned as a bride for her Lord:
    The city so holy and clean,
    No sorrow can breathe in the air;
    No gloom of affliction or sin;
    No shadow of evil is there!
    MIM 13.1

    3 By faith we already behold
    That lovely Jerusalem here;
    Her walls are of jasper and gold,
    As crystal her buildings are clear:
    Immovably founded in grace,
    She stands, as she ever hath stood,
    And brightly her Builder displays,
    And flames with the glory of God.
    MIM 13.2

    4 No need of the sun in that day,
    Which never is followed by night,
    Where Jesus’s beauties display
    A pure and a permanent light: The Lamb is their light and their sun,
    And, lo! by reflection they shine;
    With Jesus ineffably one,
    And bright in effulgence divine!
    MIM 13.3

    5 The saints in his presence receive
    Their great and eternal reward;
    In Jesus, in heaven they live,
    They reign in the smile of their Lord!
    The flame of angelical love
    Is kindled at Jesus’s face;
    And all the enjoyment above
    Consists in the rapturous gaze.
    MIM 14.1
