Deified, we with God one building will be.

All aspects of New Jerusalem
Were by the apostles perceived and conveyed.
Their teaching was the whole New Testament;
All their living and work this vision displayed.

Her base, her gates, her foundations, her wall,
Her temple, her throne, her supply and her light—
All shown by signs in the last book of all;
Their significance rich we cannot deny.

One life, one work, this our one goal today:
For that highest point where we’ll all be the same;

Going up step by step, God’s goal to attain.
