They tell me of a land so fair,
Unseen by mortal eyes,
Where spring in fadeless beauty blooms
Beneath unclouded skies.
“Eye hath not seen,
ear hath not heard,
Neither hath it entered
into the heart of man.
The things which God
hath prepared for them,
prepared for them that love Him.”
They tell me of a land so fair,
Where all is light and song,
Where angel-choirs their anthems join
With yonder blood-washed throng.
“Eye hath not seen,
ear hath not heard,
Neither hath it entered
into the heart of man.
The things which God
hath prepared for them,
prepared for them that love Him.”
No radiant beams from sun or moon
Adorn that land so fair;
For He who sits upon the throne
Shines forth resplendent there.
“Eye hath not seen,
ear hath not heard,
Neither hath it entered
into the heart of man.
The things which God
hath prepared for them,
prepared for them that love Him.”
O land of light and love and joy,
Where comes no night of care,
What will our song of triumph be
When we shall enter there!
“Eye hath not seen,
ear hath not heard,
Neither hath it entered
into the heart of man.
The things which God
hath prepared for them,
prepared for them that love Him.”
