The Celeſtial Country,
When the heavenly net is laden
With fiſhes many and great
(So glorious in its fulneſs,
Yet ſo inviolate);
And perfect from unperfected,
And fall'n from thoſe that ſtand,4
And the ſheep-flock from the goat-herd
Shall part on either hand.

And theſe ſhall paſs to torment,
And thoſe ſhall triumph then—
The new peculiar nation,
Bleſt number of bleſt men.
Jeruſalem demands them;
They paid the price on earth,
And now ſhall reap the harveſt
In bliſsfulneſs and mirth—
The glorious holy people,
Who evermore relied
Upon their Chief and Father,
The King, the Crucified—
The ſacred ranſomed number
