The Earth Made New

By Mrs. M. K. Emerson

MRS. M. K. EMERSON
’Tis joy to my heart, the thought I shall dwell On the beautiful earth made new; Fondly I picture fair Eden restored, And live in the hope of that view.
In vision I see the homes of the blest In the beautiful earth made new, And drink at the founts of holy delight, And streams of sweet purity, too.
No traces of sin, no parting, no death, In the beautiful earth made new; Joys everlasting, beauties unfading, Every flow’r that in Eden once grew.
Our powers, then touched by heavenly fire, United in harmonic chord, With ocean’s vast deep and heaven’s blue vault, Will echo the praise of the Lord.
Jesus, our Saviour, the glory and light Of the beautiful earth made new, Assist us, by faith, because of our love, Thy holy commandments to do.
