15. Sweet Sounds of Glory

1 Sweet sounds of glory greet mine ears:
Bright visions pass before mine eyes;
Freed, freed by faith from earthly cares,
My sprit heav'nward seems to rise.

Refrain:
O hallelujah! what a joy!
Upon the wing of love to soar!
Till nothing may our souls annoy,
Or drag them downward evermore!
Nevermore!

2 'Tis heav'n on earth in love to dwell,
For such a soul abides in God;
No fear of man, no dread of hell,
With joy he walks life's peaceful road. [Refrain]

3 O hallelujah! praise the Lord!
Come, brethren, join me in His praise:
Happy the soul who loves His word,
And happy he who keeps His ways. [Refrain]
