From our Father's wealthy throne,
Sweeter than the honeycomb,

Calling me his chosen heir,

Goodness, running like a stream
Through the new Jerusalem,

By a constant breaking forth,
Sweetens earth and heaven both,

Saints and angels sing aloud,
To behold the shining crowd,

From the banquet of perfume,

Finding manna on the road,
Dropping from the throne of God,

Turn and see God's smiling face,

Hark! he calls backsliders home,
Then from him no longer roam,

'Tis religion we believe,
O, glory, hallelujah!
Soon it will land our souls up yonder;
Glory, hallelujah!
