There is a fold whence none can stray,And pastures clothed in living green,Where sultry sun, or stormy day,Or gloomy night is never seen.

Far up the everlasting hillsIn God's own glorious light it lies;His smile its vast dimension fillsWith joy divine that never dies.

About this hymn

As printed Words only. As printed: hymn number «980» (large) in the right column of p. 331, below hymn 979, with the reference line «301, 136, 914.» in bold italic figures beside it (sing to the tunes of hymns 301 ROCKINGHAM, 136 WARE or 914 WOODWORTH, all L. M.; no meter is printed — the lines 8.8.8.8 are L. M.; the PDF text layer reads «801, 186», but the figures are italic 3s — see uncertainties.md). Stanzas numbered «1»–«2» without periods (written «1.»–«2.» here, as in the other deliveries of this book); lines 2 and 4 indented. The first word «THERE» is set in a capital and small capitals; written «There». «East.» in italics, right-aligned, after stanza 2. The print sets a thin space before «;» («lies ;»); it is closed up here. The apostrophe of «God's» is written straight. Spelling, punctuation and capitals are the print's.
