There love divine doth rest; What else could satisfy the hearts Of those in Jesus blest? His home made ours—His Father’s love Our heart’s full portion given, The portion of the Firstborn Son, The full delight of Heav’n. 2. Oh, what a home! The Son who knows, He only—all His love; And brings us as His well belovèd, To that bright rest above, Dwells in His bosom—knoweth all That in that bosom lies, And came to earth to make it known, That we might share His joys. 3. Oh, what a home! There fullest love Flows through its courts of light; The Son’s divine affections flow Throughout its depth and height. And full response the Father gives, To fill with joy the heart— No cloud is there to dim the scene, Or shadow to impart. 4. Oh, what a home! But such His love That He must bring us there, To fill that home, to be with Him, And all His glory share. The Father’s house, the Father’s heart, All that the Son is given Made ours—the objects of His love And He, our joy in Heav’n. Used With Tune: DRINK TO ME ONLY

Far, Far Beyond the Starry Sky

Author: Jacob D. Toews, b. 1903; Carl Plank, 1801-1825 Appears in 2 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 Far, far beyond the starry sky There is a blessed land, By faith we see its mountains rise As made by God's own hand, O happy land of fairest flow'rs! Eternal joys and bliss Await the weary wanderer, Sweet rest and happiness. 2 No words of man can ever tell The joys so full and free; Yet yearnings fill my longing soul In that fair land to be. Tho' pain and sorry here my lot, I know they shall depart, For rays of faith and hope, O Lord, Illume my longing heart. 3 Its glorious gates are open wide To all who trust the Lord; Who consecrate their lives to Him— Accept His precious Word. In silent penitential tears Confess their guilt and sin, Peace to the weary wand'ring heart The Lord now gives within. 4 'Tis but a little while on earth Where fleeting time shall cease; But ever on that blessed shore Shall reign eternal peace. The yoke of sin we've cast behind, O grasp this truth, my heart! When the redeemed shall meet above And there shall never part.
