303 Heavenly Land

Words: Isaac Watts, 1709

Music: Jeff Sheppard, 1987

Meter: Common Meter (8,6,8,6)

There is a land of pure delight,
Where saints immortal reign.
Infinite day excludes the night,
And pleasures banish pain.

There everlasting springs abide,
And never with’ring flow’rs.
Death, like a narrow sea, divides
This heav’nly land from ours.
