Hymnal: Wondrous Love #49 (1885) First Line: We speak of the realms of the blest Refrain First Line: Oh, what must it be to be there? Lyrics: 1 We speak of the realms of the blest,
That country so bright and so fair,
And oft are its glories confessed,
But what must it be to be there!

From sorrow, temptation and care,
From trials without and within,
But what must it be to be there! [Refrain]

Its walls decked with jewels so rare,
Its wonders and pleasures untold,
But what must it be to be there! [Refrain] Tune Title: [We speak of the realms of the blest]

What must it be to be there?
If its wonders and pleasures can ne’er be told,
O what must it be to be there?

Its walls deck’d with jewels most rare;
Its wonders and pleasures untold,
But what must it be to be there? [Chorus]
3 We speak of its freedom from sin,
From sorrow, temptation, and care—
From trials without and within;
But what must it be to be there? [Chorus]
4 Then let us ‘midst pleasure or woe,
For heaven our spirits prepare;
And shortly we also shall know,
And feel what it is to be there. [Chorus]
