Primary Scripture: Hebrews 11:16
Verse 1
Yonder are the golden gates, Opened wide to me; Yonder golden mansions bright, Lo, by faith I see; Yonder is the river clear, Flowing from the Throne, And this vision beautiful Bids me hasten on.
Chorus
O that land by faith I see, Glorious home of all the blest, Blessed land prepared for me; There some day my soul shall rest. O that land, by faith I see, Blessed land prepared for me; Glorious home of all the blest, There some day my soul shall rest, yes, There some day; my soul shall rest.
Verse 2
Yonder are the streets of gold, Trod by saintly feet; There exultant patriarchs' Happy prophets greet; Saints redeemed by Jesus' blood Praise their Lord who died, From earth's cares forever free. Happy they abide.
Chorus
O that land by faith I see, Glorious home of all the blest, Blessed land prepared for me; There some day my soul shall rest. O that land, by faith I see, Blessed land prepared for me; Glorious home of all the blest, There some day my soul shall rest, yes, There some day; my soul shall rest.
Verse 3
Yonder stands the tree of life By the river's brink; There the ransomed taste the fruit And the waters drink; Hark! what music greets my ear, Harps and organs play! I shall also join them there Some bright happy day.
Chorus
O that land by faith I see, Glorious home of all the blest, Blessed land prepared for me; There some day my soul shall rest. O that land, by faith I see, Blessed land prepared for me; Glorious home of all the blest, There some day my soul shall rest, yes, There some day; my soul shall rest.
