Lyrics

My God, I have found the thrice bless­èd ground,
Where life and where joy and true com­fort abound.

Refrain

Hallelujah! Thine the glo­ry.
Hallelujah! Amen.
Hallelujah! Thine the glo­ry.
Revive us again.

’Tis found in the blood of Him who once stood
My re­fuge and safe­ty, my sure­ty with God.

Refrain

He bore on the tree the sen­tence for me,
And now both the sure­ty and sin­ner are free.

Refrain

And though here be­low ’mid sor­row and woe,
My place is in Hea­ven with Je­sus I know.

Refrain

And this I shall find for such is His mind
He’ll not be in glo­ry and leave me be­hind.
