Heavenly Region

Author: George Rogers Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13937 Meter: 6.7.6.7 D First Line: There’s a region above Lyrics: 1 There’s a region above, Free from sin and temptation, And a mansion of love For each heir of salvation. Then dismiss all thy fears, Weary pilgrim of sorrow; Though thy sun set in tears, It will rise bright tomorrow. 2 There our toils will be done, And free grace be our story; God Himself be our sun, And our unsetting glory. In that world of delight, Spring shall never be ended; Nor shall shadows nor night With its brightness be blended. 3 There shall friends no more part, Nor shall farewells be spoken; There’ll be balm for the heart That with anguish was broken. From affliction set free, And from God ne’er to sever, We His glory shall see, And enjoy Him forever. Languages: English Tune Title: KANE
