From the central point of bliss,
Turn to Jesus crucify'd,
Fly to those dear wounds of his:
Sink into the purple flood;
Rise into the life of God!
2 Find in Christ the way of peace,
Peace unspeakable, unknown;
By His pain he gives you ease,
Life by his expiring groan;
Rise, exalted by his fall,
Find in Christ your all in all.
3 O believe the record true,
God to you his son hath given!
Ye may now be happy too:
Find on earth the life of heaven:
Live the life of heaven above,
All the life of glorious love.
4 This the universal bliss,
Bliss for every soul design'd:
God's original promise this,
God's great gift to all mankind:
Blest in Christ this moment be!
Blest to all eternity! Topics: Pleasantness of Religion Languages: English
