Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Worship in Song #199 (1996) First Line: How long, dear Savior, O how long Lyrics: 1 How long, dear Savior, O how long
Shall this bright hour delay?
Fly swift around, ye wheels of time,
And bring the promised day.
2 From the third heaven where God resides,
That holy, happy place,
The new Jerusalem comes down,
Adorned with shining grace.
3 The God of glory down to men
Removes his blest abode;
Men, the dear object of his grace,
And he the living God. Topics: Children Psalm 23rd; Comfort; God's glory; Grace; New Jerusalem; Shaped Note Hymn Tune Title: NORTHFIELD
