40. The Eden of Love

1. Oh, when shall I dwell in my Father's bright home,
From sorrow and sin ever free,
With the fair shining angels forever to roam,
And my blessed Redeemer to see?

Refrain:
By and by, by and by,
In that fair Eden home,
In that bright world to come,
We shall meet our blessed Saviour, by and by.

2. Oh, fair are the halls in that palace of song,
And sweetly the ransomed will sing,
As ages of bliss roll their bright tide along
In the home of our Saviour and King. [Refrain]

3. There safe shall I dwell, when life's journey is o'er,
And sing with the loved and the blest;
There dwell with my Saviour and all the redeemed
In that beautiful Eden of rest. [Refrain]
