Beneath thy contemplation Sink heart and voice oppressed; I know not, O I know not What joys await us there; What radiancy of glory, What light beyond compare! 2 They stand, those halls of Zion, All jubilant with song, And bright with many an angel, And all the martyr throng; The Prince is ever in them, The daylight is serene; The pastures of the blessed Are decked in glorious sheen. 3 There is the throne of David; And there, from care released, The song of them that triumph, The shout of them that feast; And they, who with their Leader Have conquered in the fight, Forever and forever Are clad in robes of white. 4 O sweet and blessed country, Shall I e'er see Thy face? O sweet and blessed country, Shall I e'er win thy grace? Exult, O dust and ashes, The Lord shall be thy part; His only, His forever, Thou shalt be, and thou art.
