I shall, on eagles' wings upborne, to heaven ascend. I shall behold God's face; I shall God's power adore, and sing the wonders of God's grace forevermore. 3 The goodly land I see with peace and plenty blest; a land of sacred liberty, and endless rest. There milk and honey flow, and oil and wine abound, and trees of life forever grow with mercy crowned. 4 Triumphant hosts on high give thanks eternally and "Holy, holy, holy” cry, "great Trinity!" Hail Abraham’s God and ours! One mighty hymn we raise: all power and majesty be yours and endless praise!
