Lyics

HAPPY the souls to Jesus join'd,

And sav'd by grace alone:

Walking in all his ways, they find

Their heav'n on earth begun.



The church triumphant in thy love,

Their mighty joys we know:

They sing the Lamb in hymns above,

And we in hymns below.



Thee in thy glorious realm they praise,

And bow before thy throne;

We in the kingdom of thy grace:

the kingdoms are but one.



The holy to the holiest leads;

From thence our spirits rise;

And he that in thy statutes treads

Shall meet thee in the skies.
