  1. Bathed in unfallen sunlight,
    Itself a sunborn gem,
    Fair gleams the glorious city,
    The new Jerusalem!
    City fairest, splendor rarest,
    Let me gaze on thee!
    O city fairest, splendor rarest,
    Home for all the free!
  2. Calm in her queenly glory,
    She sits all joy and light:
    Pure in her bridal beauty,
    Her raiment festal white!
    Home of gladness, free from sadness,
    Let me dwell in thee!
    O home of gladness, free from sadness,
    Mine eternally!
  3. Shading her golden pavement,
    The tree of life is seen,
    Its fruit-rich branches waving,
    Celestial evergreen.
    Tree of wonder, let me under
    Thee forever rest!
    O tree of wonder, let me under
    Thy rich boughs be blest!
  4. Rich are the priceless jewels
    That deck her mighty walls,
    And from the throne of God-head
    A wondrous radiance falls.
    City fairest, splendor rarest,
    Let me gaze on thee!
    O city fairest, splendor rarest,
    Home for all the free!
