The Hymns of "Happy Voices" (without music) #d220
1 We speak of the realms of the blest,
That country so bright and so fair,
And oft are its glories confessed;
But what must it be to be there!
Refrain:
To be there, to be there!
O what must it be to be there!
2 We speak of its peace and its love,
The robes which the glorified wear,
The songs of the blood-washed above;
But what must it be to be there!
3 We speak of its freedom from sin,
From sorrow, temptation and care,
From trials without and within;
But what must it be to be there!
4 Do thou, Lord, in pleasure or woe,
For Heaven our spirits prepare;
Then soon shall we joyfully know
And feel what it is to be there.
