Hymn/Song Information

FAITH'S VIEW OF HEAVEN




When faith beholds the saints above,
And hears their strains of Jesu's love;
I fain would fly to join their lays,
And sing with them my Saviour's praise.


But can my soul such bliss obtain,
Whose guilt deserves eternal pain?
Can I expect his face to see
Throughout a vast eternity?


If heaven be mine, 'tis all of grace,
I'll praise him for the lowest place;
May I but reach within the door,
My anxious soul desires no more.


“There, ye that love my Saviour, sit,
There I with you would fain have place,
Among your thrones or at your feet,
So I might see his lovely face.”
