Thy kingdom come
Peter Cornelius
There's a golden path in heaven
That descends from God on high
When to Thee in love and mercy
One of pure heart drawest nigh.
There's a crown that waits for Them
In that realm wherein Thou rulest,
Near the throne where on Thou sittest,
In Thy heavenly majesty.
Ah, my heart is full of error
Thou will find no crown for me:
But my soul will fill with healing
Speakest Thou one word to me.
God of kindness, God of mercy,
Make of me one pure in heart.
Come, oh come to me below,
Down that golden path of heaven.
