Representative Text

1 No night in Heav’n! O blessèd thought,
With joy and holy rapture fraught,
No shadows veil its glory bright,
Nor dim its radiant heav’nly light.

Refrain:
To that fair land, O let me come,
When sinks at last life’s setting sun,
And hope in glad fruition blest,
Shall end in everlasting rest.

2 No tears in Heav’n! nothing but joy,
Sweet happiness without alloy,
No crying there, no grief or pain,
No sorrows ever come again. [Refrain]

3 No longing for the day to come,
No waiting for the coming morn,
No waning of the glorious light,
No fading of the landscape bright. [Refrain]

4 Celestial beauties evermore
Shall bloom on that eternal shore,
While pleasures die not nor decay,
In that bright clime of endless day. [Refrain]
