O happy souls, who dwell above,
In God's immediate sight;
They glow with everlasting love,
And shine divinely bright.
O what a sabbath they enjoy,
Now freed from every sin ;
While Jesu's love is their employ,
And endless praise their theme.
O may I breathe that heavenly air,
And feast on joys divine;
And sing and praise my Saviour there,
And in his glories shine.
“Thy presence beams eternal day
O'er all the blissful place;
Who would not drop this load of clay,
And die to see thy face?”
