O, how good it is to be blessed

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1161 (1886) First Line: Burst, ye emerald gates, and bring Lyrics: 1 Burst, ye emerald gates, and bring To my raptured vision All th' ecstatic joys that spring Round the bright Elysian! Lo! we lift our longing eyes; Break, ye intervening skies! Sons of righteousness, arise! Ope the gates of paradise? Chorus: O, how good it is to be blessed, And dwell where loving Jesus is! 2 Floods of everlasting light Freely flash before him; Myriads, with supreme delight, Instantly adore him; Angel's trumps resound his fame; Lutes of lucid gold proclaim All the music of his name, Heaven echoing the theme. [Chorus] 3 Four and twenty elders rise From their princely station; Shout his glorious victories, Sing his great salvation; Cast their crowns before his throne; Cry, in reverential tone, "Glory be to God alone, Holy, holy, holy One!"
