450. O Paradise! O Paradise!

1 O PARADISE! O Paradise!
Who doth not crave for rest?
Who would not seek the happy land
Where they that loved are blest?

Refrain:
Where loyal hearts and true
Stand ever in the light,
All rapture through and through,
In God’s most holy sight.

2 O Paradise! O Paradise!
The world is growing old;
Who would not be at rest, and free
Where love is never cold? [Refrain]

3 O Paradise! O Paradise!
I greatly long to see
The special place my dearest Lord
In love prepares for me. [Refrain]

4 O Paradise! O Paradise!
Oh, keep me in Thy love,
And guide me to that happy land
Of perfect rest above! [Refrain]
