Representative Text

1 Beautiful hills of glory,
Beautiful fields of light,
When shall my longing spirit
Bathe in their splendor bright?

Refrain:
When will my loving Saviour
Call me across the sea?
Beautiful home eternal,
When shall I come to thee?

2 Beautiful strains whose echo
Oft in my soul I hear,
Songs from the many mansions,
Fall on my listening ear. [Refrain]

3 When will the voice of Jesus
Tell me my work is done?
When will the race be ended?
When will the crown be won? [Refrain]
