THE WORLD I LOVE

THE WORLD I LOVE

There is a world I love so well

A world I will someday dwell

A world with no labour

Glorious place of harbor

No rich

No poor

All on a level equal

Love crest on the heart wall

Perfect place of rest

Incessant joy blossoms the breast

A place of most exquisite brightness

With ever flowing stream of righteousness

No pain, toil, suffering-death

So sweet is the breath

There I’ll be with my family

To happily live through eternity

How I love this world to see

A place prepared for me

There sickness bugs no more

The soul grieves no more

I know I’ll be there someday

Be with my King everyday

I wish this world could now

Unfurled to my view somehow

As I teach the gospel true

The Spirit to make me anew

Then troubles and afflictions end

Ever I’ll be with my friend

Who spilt His blood for love

Ascended to the clouds above

A world light shines always

Where the sun ever blaze

No turmoil, always peace

Joyful splendors never cease

The world I love so well

Ill someday there dwell

A place of no tears

Filled with countless years

Such a brilliant world wow

I wish to be there now.

THE WORLD I LOVE
