48. High, in the Father's House Above
C.M.
by J.G. Deck
High, in the Father’s house above,
There is the home, the rest we love,
And there our bright reward.
“Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.” (John 14:1-3)
With Him we love, in spotless white,
His blissful presence our delight,
All taint of sin shall be removed,
And we shall dwell with God’s Beloved,
Through God’s eternal day.
