162. What Rich, Eternal Bursts of Praise

8,8,6.
by G.W. Frazer
1
What rich, eternal bursts of praise
 
Shall fill yon courts through endless days,
 
When time shall cease to be!
 
Round and around the notes shall swell,
 
As each redeemed one joins to tell
 
Thy love, so vast and free.
2
Each shall the Savior’s likeness bear,
 
A royal crown each brow shall wear,
 
With robes unsullied white.
 
The everlasting song shall be,
 
To Thee, O Lamb of God, to Thee,
 
Mid scenes of purest light.
3
Our joy unhindered then with Thee,
 
Our eyes undimmed Thy glory see,
 
Whilst worthy praise we give.
 
Through that eternal, cloudless day,
 
Our burning hearts with rapture say
 
He died that we might live.
