How came they to the bli$.sful seats Of everlasting day ? 2 Lot these are they from sufferings great Who came to realms of light " ' Ami in the blood of Christ have washed Those robes which shine, so bright. 3 Now with triumphal palms, they stand Before the throne on high, Ami serve the God they love, amidst The glories of the sky. 4 His^presence fills each heart with joy, Tunes every mouth to sing : By da:^, by night, the sacred courts With glad hosfinnas rinff. 5 Hunger and thirst are felt no more. Nor suns with scorching ray ; God is their sun, whose cheering beams Diffuse eternal day. 6 The Lamb which dwells amidst the throne Shall o'er them still preside ; Feed them with nourishment divine, And all their footsteps guide. 7 *Mong pastures green he'Ulead his flock,_ , Where living streams appear J And God the Lord, from every eve Shall wipe off every tear. 147» i V, f ■ f ' ' < '■<*■: rH.' r«u- - T * ',1 ♦ DEATH, RESUBR^CTTON ANIkHEAFEN.
