Transporting word for all that hear!

Verse 1
Transporting word for all that hear!
But none can hear it spoke below:
When Jesus bids his saints draw near,
They then his heavenly joy shall know:
The joy of Christ forever blest
Is in his Father’s bosom found:
And there we one with Christ shall rest,
With everlasting glories crown’d.

Verse 2
The earnest of that joy supreme
He here doth to his Saints impart:
A drop of heaven, deriv’d from Him,
Enters the true, believing heart:
But entring there our happiest state,
We bathe in that unbounded sea,
Immers’d in bliss divinely great,
Implung’d thro’ all eternity.
