Lyics

There is a place, there is a place where my hopes are stayed,

My heart and my treasure are there,

Where verdure and blossoms never fade,

And fields are eternally fair.



There is a place, there is a place where the angels dwell,

A pure and peaceful abode;

The joys of that place no tongue can tell,

But there is the palace of God.



There is a place, there is a place where my friends are gone,

Who suffered and worshiped with me;

Exalted with Christ, high on his throne,

The King in his beauty they see.



There is a place, there is a place where I hope to live

When life and its labors are o'er--

A place which the Lord to me will give,

And then I shall sorrow no more.
