Mount of Blessing
Author: Edgar Page Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: I've been up the Mount with my Lord today Refrain First Line: O it is a glorious place to be Lyrics: 1 I’ve been up the Mount with my Lord today,
In blessed communion along the way;
Tho’ He is a King and of royal birth,
He deigns to lift up the weak ones of earth.
Refrain:
O it is a glorious place to be,
And O what a wonder it is to me,
That my Saviour goes with me as I journey along,
And fills my soul with joy and with song.
2 He told of His own, His most gracious love,
And pleasures prepared for me above;
My heart was aglow with His blessed word,
Because of the presence of Christ my Lord. [Chorus]
3 He then brought me down by the waters still,
To the flow’ry vale where the songbirds trill;
In the pastures green I was led along,
Till my soul was filled with joy and with song. [Chorus]

=====================
Page, Edgar, p. 1585, i. In his Sacred Songs, &c, Mr. Sankey attributes the hymns "I've reached the land of corn and wine," and "Simply trusting every day," to "Edgar Page," as stated on p. 1585, i.; but in his My Life and Sacred Songs, 1906, he gives both to "E. P. Stites," together with some details concerning them, but without any reference to the change in his ascription of authorship.
