Hope of Glory a Source of Joy

By whom [Jesus Christ] we have access by faith into this grace whereinwe stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. — Rom 5:2

By faith to Pisgah’s top I fly,
And there delighted stand,
To view beneath a cloudless sky,
The spacious promised land.

The Lord of all the vast domain
Has promised it to me;
The length and breadth of all the plain,
As far as faith can see.
