Abundant Life

When I have slipped beyond
the surly bonds of Earth,
And put on Immortality,
exuberant joy, I will put on like a robe,
When the blessed Saviour I shall see.

Unspeakable joy, peace, and love
will be seen on every face.
Oh, the happy reunions that will abound
In this lovely, Holy place!

Jesus the author of our salvation
and creator of all mankind,
will receive me into a more abundant life
than any on Earth I could find.
