Hymn Lyrics "fitted for heaven"... ?

My pastor wants to quote a hymn with the lyrics "fitted for heaven" in a letter to our membership. Anyone have an idea what hym they're from? We both thought maybe that phrase was from an obscure verse of Blessed Assurance, but I can't find any of those, either!

I've searched several sites (Namethathymn.com, etc.), but no discovery yet...

Thanks!

Hi 82kmara,

I can't think of a hymn with the exact phrase "fitted for heaven", but the closest I can think of is verse 4 of the hymn "Take Time to Be Holy".

4.
Take time to be holy, be calm in thy soul,
Each thought and each motive beneath His control.
Thus led by His Spirit to fountains of love,
Thou soon shalt be fitted for service above.

Maybe someone else out there has some other ideas?

God bless!
Steve
