Hymnal 438 1 Since Christ my soul from sin set free, this world has been a heaven to me; And mid earth's sorrows and its woe, 'Tis Heaven my Jesus here to know O hallelujah, yes 'tis heaven 'Tis heaven to know my sins forgiven On land or sea, what matters where? Where Jesus is, 'tis heaven there. 2 Once Heaven seemed a faroff place, 'till jesus showed His smiling face; Now it's begun within my soul, 'Twill last while endless ages roll O hallelujah, yes 'tis heaven to know my sins forgiven On land or sea, what matters where? Where Jesus is, 'tis heaven there. 3 What matters where on earth we dwell? On mountain top or in the dell, in cottage or a mansion fair, where Jesus is 'tis Heaven there. O hallelujah, yes 'tis heaven to know my sins forgiven On land or sea, what matters where? Where Jesus is, 'tis heaven there.
