Author: Frank Gould Hymnal: The Finest of the Wheat #143 (1890) First Line: O sing of the rapture, the holy delight Lyrics: 1 O sing of the rapture, the holy delight,
Salvation so freely bestows,
Our path, like the noonday, is cloudless and bright
With joy from his presence that flows.
Refrain:
Salvation is free, salvation is free,
A perfect salvation for you and for me;
When over the river our dwelling we see,
We’ll shout as we enter, salvation is free.
2 O sing of the fulness of infinite love,
The bliss that we constantly share,
Communing with Jesus our Savior above,
And knowing our treasure is there. [Refrain]
3 How sweet when we gather to worship his name,
And praise him for all he has done,
To feel, while the riches of grace we proclaim,
Our Eden on earth is begun. [Refrain]
4 O glory to Jesus! again and again
Our song of devotion shall rise,
And angels re-echo the joyful amen,
They bear from our hearts to the skies. [Refrain] Tune Title: [O sing of the rapture, the holy delight]
O, Sing of the Rapture
