Lyrics

1. Forth, forth, my heart, to heaven, forth, forth, to heaven go! Amid this world's confusion there is no rest for you. Where God's Lamb hath us guided there is a place provided; there, there is rest I know. Forth, forth to heaven go!
2. If you still feel you're fettered, then wrest yourself away. The Lamb has all things conquered which bring you such dismay. Behold His banner waving where He the souls is saving; there His sweet rest you'll know. Forth, forth to heaven go!
3. O Lamb upon Mount Zion, how wonderful art Thou. Had I wings like a falcon, I would fly home right now. With triumph there rejoicing, Thine own are Thee embracing with joy and love aglow. Forth, forth to heaven go!
4. However, all my longing should rest within Thy will; my heart to Thee belonging, Thy wishes to fulfil. I shall remain here waiting until I hear Thee saying: "Forth, forth, sweet rest you'll know. Forth, forth to heaven go!"
