And lo! the willing spirit takes Its mansions near the throne. 3 We strive, but all our efforts fail To trace that upward flight; No eye can pierce within the vail Which hides the world of light. 4 Yet, though we see them not, we know Saints are supremely blest; And freed from sin, and care, and woe, And with their Saviour rest. 5 Mid' streets of gold his name they praise, His face they always view; And if we here there footsteps trace, There we shall praise him too.
