Text:A Prospect of Heaven

LII. A Prospect of Heaven

1 When God on high shall magnify
His everlasting love;
And send for me to let me see
My heritage above--

2 Then I shall rise above the skies,
In praising God with songs;
The seraphs they'll shew us the way,
Where all the angels throng.

3 Then I shall shine in light divine,
More than the morning fair,
The Father, Son, and Spirit one,
And I'm the chosen heir.

4 There see and feel what they'l reveal,
With pleasure and delight;
Then surely they'l their joys unveil,
And treasures infinite.
