CHRISTIAN PSALMIST. 1 WHAT must it be to dwell above, At God's right hand, where Jesus reigns, O'erwhelms us on these earthly plains! 2 When sin no more obstructs our sight, When sorrow pains our hearts no more, What heights and depths of love divine Will there through endless ages shine! 3 This is the heaven I long to know; For this, with patience, I would wait, And wave my palm, and wear my crown, 512.
