Ye may now be happy too, Find on earth the life of heaven: Live the life of heaven above, All the life of glorious love. 4 This the universal bliss, Bliss for every soul designed; God's original promise this, God's great gift to all mankind Blest in Christ this moment be! Blest to all eternity! Languages: English Tune Title: SEVILLE
