From north and south, from east and west,
Advance the myriads of the blest:
From every clime of earth they come,
And find in heaven a common home.
In one immortal throng we view
Pagan and Christian, Greek and Jew;
But, all their doubts and darkness o’er,
One only God they now adore,
Howe’er divided here below,
One bliss, one spirit now they know;
Though some ne’er heard of Jesus’ name
Yet God admits their honest claim.
On earth, according to their light,
They aimed to practise what was right;
Hence all their errors are forgiven,
And Jesus welcomes them to heaven.
