Hymnal: A Choice Collection of Hymns and Spiritual Songs #XCIII (1774) First Line: Tell us, O Women, we would know Lyrics: 1 Tell us, O Women, we would know
Whither so fast ye move?
We, call'd to leave the World below,
Are seeking one above.
2 Whence came ye? say? and what the Place
That ye are trav'ling from?
From Tribulation, we, through Grace,
Are now returning Home.
3 Is not your native Country here,
The Place of your Abode?
We seek a better Country far,
A City built by God.
4 Thither we travel nor intend
Short of that bliss to rest;
No, we till in the sinners Friend,
Our weary Souls are bless'd.
5 We surely know, that we shall have
Our lot in Canaan's Land;
The witness us our Saviour gave,
Seal'd with his bleeding Hand.
6 Christ is in us a certain Hope,
Of Glory yet to come;
Also, to us did Jesus stoop,
T' assure us there is Room.
7 Friends of the Bridegroom, we shall reign;
Saviour, we ask no more;
Hail, Lamb of God, for Sin,
Whom Heav'n and Earth adore. Languages: English
