1O Christ, Who hast prepared a place
For us around Thy throne of grace,
We pray Thee lift our hearts above,
And draw them with the cords of love!
2Source of all good, Thou, gracious Lord,
Art our exceeding great reward:
How transient is our present pain!
How boundless our eternal gain!
3With open face and joyful heart,
We then shall see Thee as Thou art;
Our love shall never cease to glow,
Our praise shall never cease to flow.
4Thy never-failing grace to prove,
A surety of Thine endless love,
Send down Thy Holy Ghost to be
The uplifter of our souls to Thee.
5O future Judge, Eternal Lord,
Thy Name be hallowed and adored;
To God the Father, King of heaven,
And Holy Ghost, like praise be given. Amen.
