S.II. Entrance into Paradise; or present with the Lord

1 And is this Heaven, and am I there?
How short the Road, how sweet the Flight
I am all Life, all Eye, all Ear;
Jesus is here, my Souls Delight.

2 Is this the heavenly Friend who hung
In Blood and Anguish on the Tree,
Whom Paul proclaim'd, whom David sung,
Who died for them, who died for me.

3 How fair, thou Offspring of my GOD!
Thou First born Image of his Face;
Thy Death procur'd this blest Abode,
Thy Vital Beams adorn the Place.

4 Lo he presents me at his Throne
All spotless; there the Godhead reigns
Sublime and peaceful through the Son:
Awake, my Voice, in Heav'nly Strains.
