Sweet Place

Sweet Place is a hymn by Samuel Crossman and music composed by John Darwall and Aaron Williams. Sweet place; sweet place alone!The court of God most high,The heaven of heavens, the throneOf spotless majesty! RefrainO happy place!When shall I be, my God, with Thee,To see Thy face? The stranger homeward bends,And sigheth for his rest:Heaven is my home, my friendsLodge there in Abraham’s breast.Refrain Earth’s but a sorry tent,Pitched but a few frail days,A short leased tenement;Heaven’s still my song, my praise.Refrain
