VERSE 1
Jerusalem, my happy home,
When shall I come to thee?
When shall my sorrows have an end?
Thy joys, when shall I see?
耶路撒冷，福乐天乡，
是我心所渴望；
世上忧虑何时消亡？
喜乐何时能尝？
VERSE 2
Thy saints are crowned with glory great;
They see God face to face;
They triumph still, they still rejoice
Most happy is their case.
圣徒围绕荣耀君王，
与上主面对面，
美好仗得胜心欢畅，
喜乐歌声嘹亮。
VERSE 3
For every tribe doth music rise,
All nations form the choir;
Ten thousand times that man were blest
That might this music hear.
万国万邦，万口颂扬，
赞美四处交响，
蒙福百姓听此歌唱，
称颂主恩浩荡。
VERSE 4
Why should I shrink at pain and woe
Or feel at death dismay?
I’ve Canaan’s goodly land in view
And realms of endless day.
我心为何痛苦忧伤？
在死河前绝望？
迦南美地在我前方，
那地无限荣光。
VERSE 5
Oh when thou city of my God,
Shall I thy courts ascend;
Where congregations ne’er break up,
And Sabbaths have no end?
上帝之城终必临降，
欢喜站天庭上，
圣徒聚会永不散场，
永恒安息我享。
VERSE 6
Jerusalem, Jerusalem,
God grant that I may see
Thine endless joy, and of the same
Partaker ever be!
耶路撒冷，耶路撒冷，
求主领我亲见，
与主同在，喜乐无疆
我心何等向往。
