'Tis heaveu to rest in thine embrace And no where else but there. 4 To thee, and thee alone, The angels owe their bliss; They sit around thy gracious throne, And dwell where Jesus is. 5 Not all the harps above, Can make a heav'nly place; If God his residence remove, Or but conceal his face. 6 Nor earth, nor all the sky, Can one delight afford; No, not one drop of real joy, Without thy presence, Lord. 7 Thou art the sea of love, Where all my pleasures roll; The circle where my passions move, And centre of my soul. HYMN XI. 1 "7"E happy sinners, hear JL The prisoner of the Lord; And wait till Christ appear, According to his word!
