1 O Paradise, O Paradise,
Who doth not crave for rest?
Who would not seek the happy land
Where they that loved are blest;
Where loyal hearts and true,
Stand ever in the light,
All rapture, thro' and thro',
In God's most holy sight?
2 O Paradise, O Paradise,
The world is growing old;
Who would not be at rest and free
Where love is never cold?
Where loyal hearts and true
Stand ever in the light,
All rapture, thro' and thro',
In God's most holy sight?
3 O Paradise, O Paradise,
We long to sin no more;
We long to be as pure on earth
As on Thy spotless shore;
Where loyal hearts and true
Stand ever in the light,
All rapture, thro' and thro',
In God's most holy sight?
4 O Paradise, O Paradise,
We shall not wait for long;
E'en now the loving ear may catch
Faint fragments of thy song;
Where loyal hearts and true
Stand ever in the light,
All rapture, thro' and thro',
In God's most holy sight?
5 Lord Jesus, King of Paradise,
Oh, keep me in Thy love,
And guide us to that happy land
Of perfect rest above;
Where loyal hearts and true
Stand ever in the light,
All rapture, thro' and thro',
In God's most holy sight?
Amen. Used With Tune: [O Paradise, O Paradise]
O Paradise, O Paradise
