LVII. Longings for Heaven and Glory

1 Jesus, I thirst, and go I must,
I long to be above--
I long to sing to Christ my king,
Where oceans flow with love.

2 Ye happy souls that always roll
In love and joy and peace,
Which always run thro' God's dear son
Whose love will never cease.

3 You're blest I say and you shall stay
With Jesus Christ above;
And always swim along with him
In oceans full of love.

4 Glory to God the father be,
Glory to God the son,
Glory to God the Holy Ghost,
Glory to God alone.
