<p>How happy every child of grace,<br>
|
|
Who knows his sins forgiven!<br>
|
|
“This earth,” he cries, “is not my place,<br>
|
|
I seek my place in heaven—<br>
|
|
A country far from mortal sight,<br>
|
|
Which yet by faith I see,<br>
|
|
The land of rest, the saints’ delight,<br>
|
|
The heaven prepared for me.”</p>
|
|
<p>O what a blessèd hope is ours!<br>
|
|
While here on earth we stay,<br>
|
|
We more than taste the heavenly powers,<br>
|
|
And antedate that day.<br>
|
|
We feel the resurrection near,<br>
|
|
Our life in Christ concealed,<br>
|
|
And with His glorious presence here<br>
|
|
Our earthen vessels filled.</p>
|
|
<p>O would He more of heaven bestow,<br>
|
|
And let the vessels break,<br>
|
|
And let our ransomed spirits go<br>
|
|
To grasp the God we seek;<br>
|
|
In rapturous awe on Him to gaze,<br>
|
|
Who bought the sight for me;<br>
|
|
And shout and wonder at His grace<br>
|
|
Through all eternity!</p>
