Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #836 (1886) First Line: O when shall I see Jesus Lyrics: 1 O when shall I see Jesus,
And in his kingdom dwell?
Partake its rest eternal,
Its songs triumphant swell?
When shall I be delivered
From this vain world of sin,
And with my blessed Jesus
Drink endless pleasures in?
Refrain:
There is sweet rest in heaven,
There is sweet rest in heaven,
There is sweet rest, there is sweet rest,
There is sweet rest in heaven.
2 And when the last loud trumpet
Shall rend the vaulted skies,
And the entombed millions
From their cold beds arise,
Our ransomed dust revived,
Bright beauties shall put on,
And soar to the blest mansions
Where our Redeemer's gone. [Refrain]
3 Our eyes shall then with rapture
The Saviour's face behold;
Our feet, no more diverted,
Shall walk the streets of gold;
Our ears shall hear with transport
The hosts celestial sing;
Our tongues shall chant the glory
Of our immortal King. [Refrain]
