Author: H. R. Krauth; E. Knak Hymnal: Wartburg Hymnal #356 (1918) Lyrics: 1 Let me go, let me go,
Lord, to me Thy presence show;
Thither still my heart is turning,
For Thy heav'nly courts in yearning,
There Thy perfect rest to know,
There Thy perfect rest to know.
2 Sweetest Light, sweetest Light,
Sun that scatter'st clouds in flight,
O when shall I come before Thee,
When shall I with saints adore Thee,
Dwelling in Thy presence bright!
Dwelling in Thy presence bright!
3 Ah, how clear, ah, how clear,
Ring the angel voices there!
While my soul for wings is sighing,
Wings o'er vale and mountain flying,--
Now in Zion to appear,
Now in Zion to appear.
4 What shall be, what shall be,
All the joy laid up for me,
Lord, I know not, eyes are holden
Till Jerusalem the golden
In its beauty I shall see,
In its beauty I shall see.
5 Paradise, Paradise,
Fairest fruits delight our eyes,
Where the Tree of Life is planted,
Bliss beyond our dreams is granted;
Bring us, Lord, to Paradise!
Bring us, Lord, to Paradise!
