All This and Heaven Too
ALL THIS AND HEAVEN TOO
The beauty of nature surrounds me,
The flowers all sparkling with dew,
The birds of the heavens all singing
That fly and that glide through the blue.
All this, and heaven, too,
Way up beyond the blue;
Jesus has promised you
All this, and heaven, too.
The plan of salvation Christ gave me,
His blood shed in passion and love
That He might give me His forgiveness
And mansions in heaven above.
The blessings He showers upon me,
The trials and answers to prayer;
Though I fail Him, I know that His mercy
Is waiting when I meet Him there.
Oh, sinner, you’ll never know true joy
Until you trust His work complete.
He’ll turn all your darkness to noonday
And give you His mercy so sweet.
Music has been written to these words.
