Words: Isaac Watts, 1707

Music: A. M. Cagle, 1959

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

Oh, the delights, the heav’nly joys,
The glories of the place,
Where Jesus sheds the brightest beams,
Of His o’erflowing grace.
Sweet majesty and awful love
Sit smiling on His brow,
And all the glorious ranks above,
At humble distance bow.
