207. It Is Heaven

1 Gone are my fears, for the Saviour has found me;
My sins He forgave, by His grace I am free;
In storm and in calm His strong arms are around me:
To know that He love me is heaven for me.

Refrain:
It is heaven just to know that Jesus
Washed away my every stain of sin;
It is heaven just to know that Jesus
Washed away my every stain of sin.

2 Nailed to the cross, by the world unbefriended,
What anguish He suffered on Calvary’s tree!
In sorrow He died, but in glory ascended:
To know He redeemed me is heaven for me. [Refrain]

3 Wonderful love of the heart that was broken!
He cast all my sins in the depths of the sea;
And daily His gifts are to me as a token:
To know He is with me is heaven for me. [Refrain]

4 Saved by His grace I shall meet Him in glory—
What joy will be mine when His face I shall see!
And sing with the ransomed Redemption’s glad story:
To be with the Lord will be heaven for me. [Refrain]
