Jeremiah 3:17: At that time they shall call Jerusalem, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)

Religion

But where Thou didst for ages dwell,
Thy brighter majesty reveal.
And call the land Thine own:
In Jewry's land Thy house repair.
Set up the' imperial standard there,
And fix Thy favourite throne.

To Salem, as their central place,
Saviour, bring in the ransom'd race,
Thy glorious name to' adore,
Redeem'd from all iniquity.
In spirit and truth to worship Thee,
Till time shall be no more.
