How happy every child of grace

Hymnal: Songs of Zion #13 (1821) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. How happy every child of graceWho knows his sins forgiven!This earth, he cries, is not my place,I seek my place in heaven:A country far from mortal sight;Yet, O! By faith I seeThe land of rest, the saints’ delight,The heaven prepared for me.2. O what a blessed hope is ours!While here on earth we stay,We more than taste the heavenly powers,And antedate that day:We feel the resurrection near,Our life in Christ concealed,And with his glorious presence hereOur earthen vessels filled.3. O would he more of heaven bestow!And let the vessels break,And let our ransomed spirits goTo grasp the God we seek:In rapturous awe on him to gazeWho bought the sight for me,And shout and wonder at his graceThrough all eternity. Tune Title: PILGRIM
