Hymn 227
Since Christ my soul from sin set free
Meter: L.M. & Ref.
Scripture: John 8:32
1
Since Christ my soul from sin set free,
This world has been a heav’n to me;
And 'mid earth's sorrows and its woe,
'Tis heav’n my Jesus here to know.
CHORUS
O hallelujah, yes ’tis heav’n,
'Tis heav’n to know my sins forgiv’n;
On land or sea, what matters where?
Where Jesus is, ‘tis heaven there.
2
Once heaven seemed a far-off place,
Till Jesus showed His smiling face;
Now it’s begun within my soul,
‘Twill last while endless ages roll.
3
What matters where on earth we dwell?
On mountain top, or in the dell?
In cottage, or in mansion fair,
Where Jesus is, ’tis heaven there.
