Lord, Thy presence to me show!
Now my soul, for Jesus yearning,
Is to yonder mansions turning,
There its perfect rest to know.
2 Sweetest Light, sweetest Light,
Sun that put test clouds to flight,
When shall I appear before Thee,
When with all Thy saints adore Thee,
And behold Thy glory bright?
3 Ah, how clear, ah, how clear
Ring those angel voices dear!
How my soul for wings is sighing,
That o'er vale and mountain flying,
I in Zion might appear.
4 What shall be, what shall be
All the joy in store for me,
Lord, I know not, eyes are holden,
Till Jerusalem, the golden,
In its beauty I shall see!
5 Paradise, Paradise,
Fairest fruit delights our eyes;
Where Thy verdant trees are planted,
Bliss beyond our dreams is granted;
Take us, Lord, to Paradise. Topics: Spiritual Songs Selected Used With Tune: [Let me go, let me go]
