Hymnal: Doctor Watts's Imitation of the Psalms of David, corrected and enlarged, to which is added a collection of hymns; the whole applied to the state of the Christian Church in general (2nd ed.) #XVI (1786) First Line: Nor eye hath seen nor ear hath heard Lyrics: 1 Nor eye hath seen, nor ear hath heard,
Nor sense, nor reason known,
What joys the Father has prepar'd
For those that love the Son.
2 But the good spirit of the Lord
Reveals a heaven to come;
The beams of glory, in his word,
Allure and guide us home.
3 Pure are the joys above the sky,
And all the region peace;
No wanton lips nor envious eye,
Can see or taste the bliss.
4 Those holy gates forever bar
Pollution, sin, and shame;
None shall obtain admittance there,
But followers of the Lamb.
5 He keeps the Father's book of life,
There all their names are found
The Hypocrite in vain shall strive
To tread the heavenly ground.
