For thee, O dear, dear country
Author: John Mason Neale, 1818 - 66; Bernard of Cluny, XII cent. Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #534b (1958) Hymnal Title: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America Lyrics: 1 For thee, O dear, dear country,
Mine eyes their vigils keep;
For very love, beholding
Thy happy name, they weep;
2 The mention of thy glory
Is unction to the breast,
And medicine in sickness,
And love, and life, and rest.
3 O one, O only mansion,
O Paradise of joy!
Where tears are ever banished,
And smiles have no alloy;
4 The Cross is all thy splendor,
The Crucified thy praise;
His laud and benediction
Thy ransomed people raise.
5 Thou hast no shore, fair ocean;
Thou hast no time, bright day;
Dear fountain of refreshment
To pilgrims far away!
6 Upon the Rock of Ages
They raise thy holy tower;
Thine is the victor's laurel,
And thine the golden dower.
7 O sweet and blessèd country,
The home of God's elect;
O sweet and blessèd country,
That eager hearts expect!
8 Jesus, in mercy bring us
To that dear land of rest,
Who art, with God the Father
And Spirit, ever blest.
Amen.

Mine eyes their vigils keep;
For very love beholding
Thy holy 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 banish’d
And smiles have no alloy;
Thy loveliness oppresses
All human thought and heart,
And none, O Peace, O SIon,
Can sing thee as thou art.
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 shall build thy fabric,
And the cornerstone is Christ.
4 The cross is all thy splendor,
The Crucified thy praise;
His laud and benediction
Thy ransom’d saints shall raise;
Upon the Rock of Ages
They build 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. Topics: Doctrines Eternal Life Tune Title: ELY CATHEDRAL

O Paradise of joy!

And smiles have no alloy;

With jasper glow thy bulwarks,
Thy streets with emeralds blaze;

With amethyst unpriced;
The saints build up thy fabric,
And the corner-stone is Christ.
The cross is all thy splendour,
The Crucified thy praise;
