3 I love to think of heaven,

The saints’ eternal home,

Where palms, and robes, and crowns ne’er fade,

And all our joys are one.

4 I love to think of heaven,

The greetings there we’ll meet,

The harps—the songs for ever ours—

The walks—the golden streets.

5 I love to think of heaven,

That promised land so fair;
