HYMN XVI. Heaven invisible and holy, 1 Cor. ii.9, 10. Rev. xxi.27

Nor eye hath seen, nor ear has heard, Nor sense, nor reason known, What joys the Father has prepar'd For those who love the Son.

But the good spirit of the Lord Reveals a heaven to come; The beams of glory, in his word, Allure and guide us home.

Pure are the joys above the sky, And all the regions peace; No wanton lips or envious eye, Can see or taste the bliss.

Those holy gates forever bar Pollution, sin, and shame; None shall obtain admittance there, But followers of the Lamb.

He keeps the Father's book of life, There all the names are found The hypocrite in vain shall strive To tread the heavenly ground.
