Music by George C. Stebbins, words by Joseph Swain
What will it be to dwell above,
And with the Lord of glory reign,
Since the blessed knowledge of His love
So brightens all this dreary plain?
No heart can think, no tongue can tell,
What joy 'twill be with Christ to dwell!
No heart can think, no tongue can tell,
What joy 'twill be with Christ to dwell!
When sin no more obstructs the sight,
And flesh and sense deceive no more,
When we shall see the Prince of life,
And all His works of grace explore:
What heights and depths of love divine,
Will there through endless ages shine!
What heights and depths of love divine,
Will there through endless ages shine!
And God has fixed the happy day,
When the last tear shall dim our eyes,
When He will wipe these tears away,
And fill our hearts with glad surprise;
To hear His voice, and see His face,
And know the fullness of His grace.
To hear His voice, and see His face,
And know the fullness of His grace.
