From the palace of His glory,
From the home of joy and love,
Came the Lord Himself to seek us;
He would have us there above.
There from that
eternal brightness
Have His thoughts
flowed forth in love;
He in His great love
would have us
Ever there with Him above.
Trembling, we had
hoped for mercy—
Some lone place within the door;
But the crown,
the throne, the mansion
All were purposed long before.
And in past and distant ages,
In those courts so bright and fair,
Ere we were, was He rejoicing,
All He won with us to share.
