Author: Mrs. Elizabeth Mills, 1805-1829 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #346b (1901) Lyrics: 1 We speak of the realms of the blest,
That country so bright and so fair,
And oft are its glories confessed;
But what must it be to be there!
2 We speak of its pathways of gold,
Its walls decked with jewels so rare,
Its wonders and pleasures untold;
But what must it be to be there!
3 We speak of its freedom from sin,
From sorrow, temptation, and care,
From trials without and within;
But what must it be to be there!
4 We speak of its service of Love,
The robes which the glorified wear,
The church of the first-born above;
But what must it be to be there!
5 Do Thou, Lord, 'mid sorrow and woe,
Still for heaven my spirit prepare,
And shortly I also shall know
And feel what it is to be there.
