Refrain: ’Tis a kingdom of peace, it is reigning within, It shall ever increase in my soul; We possess it right here when He saves from all sin, And ’twill last while the ages shall roll. 2 There’s a scene of its grandness before me, Of its greatness there can be no end; It is joy, it is peace, it is glory, In my heart, how these riches do blend! [Refrain] 3 I am lost in its splendor and beauty, To its ne’er-fading heights I would rise, Till I see the King come to receive me, And explore it with Him in the skies. [Refrain] 4 What a pleasure in life it is bringing! What assurance and hope ever bright! Oh, what rapture and bliss are awaiting, When our faith shall be lost in the sight!
