CXXVIII. Happy the souls to Jesus join'd

1 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.

2 The church triumphant in thy love,
Their mighty joys we know,
They sing the Lamb in Hymns above,
And we in hymns below.

3 Thee in thy glorious realm they praise,
And bow before thy throne!
We in the kingdom of thy grace;
The kingdoms are but one.

4 The holy to the holy'st leads;
From thence our spirits rise:
And he that in thy statutes treads
Shall meet thee in the skies.
