Thy man­sions ce­les­ti­al, thy pa­lac­es bright,
And pear­ly gates be­hold?
Thy walls are made of pre­cious stones,
To thy Lord shalt thou be led;

Thy bul­warks

Dear voic­es are chant­ing thy chor­us of praise,
And streets of shin­ing gold?
Thy gates are of right ori­ent pearl,
Of pure gold are fa­shion­èd.
