Where thy full beams impart Unclouded beauty to the sight, And rapture to the heart. 6 Her part in those fair realms of bliss, My spirit longs to know; My wishes terminate in this, Nor can they rest below. 7 Lord, shall the breathings of my heart Aspire in vain to thee? Confirm my hope, that where thou art, I shall for ever be. 8 Then shall my cheerful spirits sing The darksome hours away, And rise on faith's expanded wing To everlasting day.
