Representative Text

1 We sing of bright mansions in glory,
That Jesus has gone to prepare;
We sing of their grandeur and beauty,
But have we a dwelling place there?

Refrain:
O let us be sure that our hearts are giv’n,
Not to the world, but to God in heav’n;
Let us be sure, let us be sure
That Jesus will gather us there.

2 We sing of the spirits made perfect,
That dwell on that evergreen shore;
But shall we be counted among them,
And sorrow and sigh never more? [Refrain]

3 We sing of a bright flowing river,
Proceeding from God and the Lamb;
But O shall we drink from its waters,
For ever so crystal and calm? [Refrain]

4 Dear Saviour, in mercy direct us,
And fill ev’ry heart with Thy love;
That we may be found with the faithful,
And dwell in Thy kingdom above. [Refrain]
