O Paradise! O Paradise!
Who doth not crave for rest?
Who would not seek the happy land?
Where they that loved are blest,
Where loyal hearts, and true,
Stand ever in thy light,
All rapture through and through,
In God’s most holy sight.

O Paradise! O Paradise!
The world is growing old;
Who would not be at rest and free
Where love is never cold?
Where loyal hearts, and true,
Stand ever in thy light,
All rapture through and through,
In God’s most holy sight.

O Paradise! O Paradise!
Wherefore doth death delay,
Bright death that is the welcome dawn
Or our eternal day.
Where loyal hearts, and true,
Stand ever in thy light,
All rapture through and through,
In God’s most holy sight.

O Paradise! O Paradise!
‘Tis weary waiting here;
I long to be where Jesus is,
To feel, to see Him near
Where loyal hearts, and true,
Stand ever in thy light,
All rapture through and through,
In God’s most holy sight.

O Paradise! O Paradise!
I want to sin no more,
I want to be as pure on earth
As on thy spotless Shore,
Where loyal hearts, and true,
Stand ever in thy light,
All rapture through and through,
In God’s most holy sight.

O Paradise! O Paradise!
I greatly long to see
The special place my dearest Lord
Is destining for me,
Where loyal hearts, and true,
Stand ever in thy light,
All rapture through and through,
In God s most holy sight.

O Paradise! O Paradise!
I feel 'twill not be long
Patient! I almost think I hear,
Faint fragments of your songs
Where loyal hearts, and true,
Stand ever in thy light,
All rapture through and through,
In God’s most holy sight.
