LyicsWHO can describe the joys that rise,
Through all the courts of Paradise,
To see a prodigal return,
To see an heir of glory born!
With joy the Father doth approve
The fruit of his eternal love;
The Son with joy looks down and see,
The purchase of his agonies.
The Spirit takes delight to view,
The holy soul he form'd anew;
And saints and angels join to sing,
The growing empire of their King.
