When shall I come to thee?
When shall my sorrows have an end?
Your joys when shall I see?

O sweet and pleasant soil!
In you no sorrow may be found,
No grief, no care, no toil.

Continually are green;
There grow such sweet and pleasant flow'rs
As nowhere else are seen.
4 There trees forevermore bear fruit
And evermore do spring;
There evermore the angels sit
and evermore do sing.

God grant that I may see
Your endless joy, and of the same
Partaker ever be!
