O trans­port­ing scene!
O rap­tur­ous dream
Which unal­loyed plea­sures be­stow,
Where Christ is the beam
That shines o’er the stream
That flows dark­ly the val­ley be­low.

Refrain

Will you go to that land,
To that beau­ti­ful stand,
Where ne­ver­more com­eth the night,
And the Sav­ior of men
Will re­veal to us then
His trea­sures of grace and de­light.

His love and His care
Lead up­ward to where
The flow­ers are al­ways in bloom,
And win­ter’s chill air,
And sum­mer­time glare
Are dis­pelled in the sweet­est per­fume.

Refrain

Where faith’s bril­liant light
Adds strength to our sight,
In vi­sions of rap­ture and love;
Where lives are made bright,
And souls in their flight
Wing their way to the man­sions above.
