There the good, in concord sweet,

Worship at Jehovah's feet,—

Raise the song, with joy unknown,

Circling round his holy throne.

Works of love, and songs of joy,

All the happy hours employ;

Sickness, trouble, want, and pain,

Seek admittance there in vain.

There shall He who, laugh'd to scorn,

Wore the piercing crown of thorn,
