\"These glorious minds! how bright they shine
Hymn 111
1
"These glorious minds! how bright they shine!
Whence all their white array?
How came they to the happy seats
Of everlasting day?"
2
From torturing pains to endless joys
On fiery wheels they rode,
And strangely washed their raiment white
In Jesus' dying blood.
3
Now they approach th' eternal God,
And bow before his throne;
Their warbling harps and sacred songs
Adore the Holy One.
4
The unveiled glories of his face
Among his saints reside,
While the rich treasure of his grace
Sees all their wants supplied.
5
Tormenting thirst shall leave their souls,
And hunger flee as fast;
The fruit of life's immortal tree
Shall be their sweet repast.
6
The Lamb shall lead his heavenly flock
Where living fountains rise;
And love divine shall wipe away
The sorrows of their eyes.
