206. What will it be to dwell above

1. What will it be to dwell above,

   And with the Lord of glory reign?

   Since the blest knowledge of His love

   So brightens all this dreary plain;

   No heart can think, no tongue can tell

   What joy 'twill be with Christ to dwell.

2. When sin no more obstructs the sight,

   And flesh and sense deceive no more,

   When we shall see the Prince of Light,

   And all His works of grace explore;

   What heights and depths of love divine

   Will there through endless ages shine!

3. And God has fixed the happy day

   When the last tear shall dim our eyes,

   When He will wipe these tears away

   And fill our hearts with glad surprise;

   To hear His voice, and see His face,

   And know the fulness of His grace!
