Lyrics: Samuel Stennett
Tune: Emily Wells, 1995
Meter: C.M. (8,6,8,6)

Sweet fields arrayed in living green
And rivers of delight,
Oh the transporting rapt'rous scene
That rises to my sight.

There is a land of pure delight
Where saints immortal reign,
Infinite day excludes the night
And pleasures banish pain.

I long to see my friends again
And hear them sweetly say
Come weary dove here is thy home,
Then fold thy wings and stay.
