48: HIGH in the Father's house above

48: HIGH in the Father's house above

by James George Deck (1802-1884)

1 HIGH in the Father's house above,
Our mansion is prepared;
There is the home, the rest we love,
And there our bright reward.

2 With Him we love, in spotless white,
In glory we shall shine;
His blissful presence our delight
In love and joy divine.

3 All taint of sin shall be removed,
All evil done away;
And we shall dwell with God's Beloved,
Through God's eternal day.
