As Jacob with travel (Jacob's ladder)    

1) As Jacob with travel was weary one day
At night on a stone for a pillow he lay
He saw in a vision a ladder so high
That its foot was on earth and its top in the sky

Ref.: Alleluia to Jesus who died on the tree
And has raised up a ladder of mercy for me
And has raised up a ladder of mercy for me

2) This ladder is long it is strong and well made
Has stood hundreds of years and is not yet decayed
Many millions have climbed it
And reached Sion's hill
And thousands by faith are climbing it still

3) Come let us ascend all may climb it who will
For the angels of Jacob are guarding it still
And remember each step that by faith we pass o'er
Some prophet or martyr has trod it before

4) And when we arrive at the haven of rest
We shall hear the glad words
Come up hither ye blest
Here are regions of light
Here are mansions of bliss
O who would not climb such a ladder as this
