A Psalm speaking of heaven

PSALM 87

Jerusalem


Jerusalem!  Jerusalem!

The heavenly city where you dwell

From here do all your blessings stem.

You are the Lord, Immanuel.

All glory be to you alone.

By your Son’s death we are your own.


God’s house is in Jerusalem.

He blesses all who come to praise.

All goodness comes alone from Him

In thankful praise our hearts we raise.

All glory be to you alone.

By your Son’s death we are your own.


God stands upon his holy mount.

He rules his people from this place.

There we for sins must give account.

From there he fills us with his grace.

All glory be to you alone.

By your Son’s death we are your own.

Jerusalem is the symbol of the heavenly city where God dwells.  It can
also be a symbol of the church, as the home of God on earth, the very
foundation of it being Jesus Christ and the mount upon which it is
built is the promises of God to his people.
