There’s a region above
Free from sin and temptation
And a mansion of love
For each heir of salvation.
Then dismiss all thy fears
Weary pilgrim of sorrow;
Though thy sun set in tears
It will rise bright tomorrow.
There our toils will be done
And free grace be our story;
God Himself be our sun
And our unsetting glory.
In that world of delight
Spring shall never be ended;
Nor shall shadows nor night
With its brightness be blended.
There shall friends no more part
Nor shall farewells be spoken;
There’ll be balm for the heart
That with anguish was broken.
From affliction set free
And from God ne’er to sever
We His glory shall see
And enjoy Him forever.
